Feser One Cooling Fluid is CRAP!

[Gazmtk]

Ok so I bought some Feser One UV-Pink coolant (yes a friend wanted UV PINK! FFS!) so it was that or primochill, well after filling the loop with this FESER ONE SHIT and turning off the lights and throwin on the UV light well lets just say my skin is more UV reactive than this shit! :mad:
I then grabbed a glass test tube, filled it up, once again NO UV REACTION!! WTF!? though it glows in the bottle it came in :confused:

I fired off a contact to feser which was
--------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Feser

I recently bought your "Feser One UV - Pink cooling and although it glows in the bottle it has NO glow inside tubing or even in a Glass test tube, why is this? I bought it for the pink glow and I have got no such results.
Regards Gary

--------------------------------------------------------------

So for anyone considering SUCH products from Feser in future, maybe reconsider because this is SHIT! I paid $50 US to ship this crap to me, not impressed!

ohh and if anyone from feser is lurking here, fix ya shit!

ok guys have fun
Regards Gaz

P.S. photo was taken on a cell phone, couldn't be assed grabbing my Camera or stand, was to angry :rolleyes:

EDIT : its the tubing it turns out, it must not let the right UV waves through for Feser to Glow! :(

I hate to be obvious, but are you sure your tubing doesnt have a UV resistant coating on it? Glass naturally repels a large amount of UV on its own... Try putting it in like a squirt bottle and see if it reacts.

I was just about to say that but Cutless beat me to it.
Your tubing may have UV inhibitors to make it last longer.

I have a few bottles of FeserOne here and they all glow nicely under UV - despite the fact that I have no interest in 'glow'.

Fully concur!!!

well that was my first theory that its the tubing, but the same tubing used works great with some UV blue drops I tried first up, but he wanted Pink, nothing has been changed except for the used tubing to new tubing?? so thats why I was like WTF is going on?! what is good tubing to use with UV coolant just so I can try another type of tubing to be sure? me personally I like black tubing and distilled water ;)

Maybe the pink you got wasn't UV reactive? Happens or it could be a screw up? I have both yellow & blue feser one UV & they both glow like a reactor on high settings lol.

But he said that it glowed in the original bottle ...

[Gazmtk]

nah its definately meant to be UV pink :(
Im lost for words, might order different tubing to be sure its not the tubing, as the were 2 different orders of tubing, but the same tubing, but that could also be it?? but I thought the glass test tube would be good to test the UV reactiveness in... am I wrong?? :rolleyes:

[Gazmtk]

ok I have 3 bits of tubing before me, Primochill LRT clear, Masterkleer and clearflex atm, the clearflex is UV reactive, but the other 2 are not, and the primochill is what I am using... dont understand this as it was fine with UV Blue drops, maybe I need to test all 3 with the drops to see???

Ok lets cut the shit, whats good tubing thats clear and 1/2inch ??

The only thing I can think of is that the fluorescence of the pink and blue stuff are each stimulated by slightly different UV wavelengths, and that by luck your tubing has a transmission cutoff somewhere between the two. Just try putting a couple of drops of each on a napkin or on the surface of a plastic bag and observe in a darkened room under UV light.

Oh yea ... your tubing isn't itself reactive is it? If it is, then it's absorbing the UV by definition before it get's through to the liquid.

I'm with you - black 'n distilled.

Most glass generally blocks UV big time. That's why they use quartz tubes in chem labs to do UV spectroscopy.

[Gazmtk]

awwww im dumb :( thanx Rubidium I will get a quartz tube for future refrence ;)

Pour some in a small bowl and see if it glows.

[Gazmtk]

Yeh it glows on the tissue and in the bowl :( that leaves the tubing :( I just need to know what tubing works well with Feser now :(

[Langer]

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say give Feser Tube a try.

forgot to finish my sentence, lol

[Gazmtk]

hmmm where to get feser tubing is the next question :( no to PPC and that doesnt leave alot of options, but thanks for your help guys ;) appreciated

[yeow_z]

yes feser is a piece of sh*t! i bought the yellow one, but after few mins, it turned to green, and no UV.
