Ozone generators, expensive reef made options or cheap generic?

I paid 20 euro over a year ago for mine and still goes on
 
I think I might bite the bullet and pick the HCD-55 up, anyone have experience?

I find experimenting with Amazon products to be easy. I would try it out and if you don’t like it then send it back.

I would look for units that have an input line like the Weipro, my limited research shows they produce more output and are most consistent with their output. They also make it possible to add a drier.

To provide more insight. I tried this spa unit: Amazon product ASIN B0D7VN3P4L

It produced good output for five minutes, then started to produce about 5% to 10% of what it started, which sucked.

I started with this unit, which I intended to use on the aquarium and then spot duty for rooms as ducts. It produced good output, but was bulky.

The Weipro looks like a good choice thank you. I'm new to this and wasn't familiar with needing a dryer to keep things running smoothly, are there any cheaper options than BRS's $135 ozone air filter?

I bought the drier below. It is good and cheap. I wish it was a little bigger because here in FL, the media needs to be recharged every three days. I have two batches of media and dry them once a week.

As a follow up regarding the drier and how fast my desiccant gets saturated. Below are pictures of how my desiccant started on Sunday afternoon and what it looks like right now on Wednesday afternoon.

I wish I was on my blue batch so you can see the more dramatic color change but like I said, I rotate the batches ever three or four days and recharge them in the toaster oven once a week.
 
The one I mentioned above is still going strong.

The only reason I didn't link above is because products available from Amazon in Australia would not be the same as those available in other regions. However this is a link (but it's increased in price from AUD $49 to $89 since I originally purchased it).

How did you wire this up to run on an Aussie powerpoint? Do the colours match up to just buy a DIY 3 prong plug from Bunnings?
 
I got the ozotech from BRS. Hopefully I have good luck with it.i am using an air dryer with descendant. And I do have an Apex with ORP probe. Logic is set on unit to turn off if level is 375 or higher

I don't actually remember, but it will either be IEC colours (as we use in Australia) , or it'll be black and white wires in which case white is the hot wire (equivalent to our brown, and black is equivalent to our blue).

If you get one, post a photo and I'll crack open the plug I wired and check for you.
