SXK DOGGY STYLE

[Brewdawg1181]

I think I’ll order an SJMY one. Seems the “starter kit” is the tank and the spare tubes.

Now if only I can figure what is PMMA and acrylic. Oh well.

Here's a link that compares them - maybe info overkill, but it's something:Acrylic vs. Polycarbonate: a Quantitative and Qualitative Comparison –

And there's this from a fasttech forum:

But I got the polycarb, because I like clear and don't use tank cracker juices anyway. And it's what came with my SXK.

No mention in there about BPA and PC and that should also be considered when choosing, just so the consumer is informed:
Bisphenol A is released from polycarbonate drinking bottles and mimics the neurotoxic actions of estrogen in developing cerebellar neurons

My understanding was that juice crackers usually crack PC but not acrylic but I'm sure there are all types of combinations and chemical reactions that may occur depending on the juice.

Here's a pretty comprehensive list of plastics and their compatibility with chemicals.

Tmi. I’ll get pmma and buy pc extras.

I use the Acrylic now on all my doggies.They seem sturdier. I found the PC tanks fit the SXK fine but not the SJMY version. Something to bear in mind if you are ordering the SJMY. For some bizarre reason the acrylic fits both versions fine.

Yeah, I'm not convinced on the dangers of BPA but with options for acrylic or glass I'll take those first if the option is there, just to be safe(r) as @Katdarling says

I just don't use juices that crack plastic tanks. To be safe(er). Seriously, if some component in my juice is capable of dissolving plastic, I don't want it in my lungs.

I don't use juice crackers either but BPA and juice cracking are 2 separate issues.

BPA leeches out of PC regardless of the type of juice.

Capital R, dahlink.

And I'm with ya. I love the look of the PC, but I'll take glass first, and PmmA second.

That's a lie. I'll take what looks best any day.

Here's hoping you don't eat Subway samiches!

This is a tough one, sweets.

"Overall, the study found "minimal effects" for the BPA-dosed groups of rodents."

I am not a rodent, nor do I play one on TV. Seriously, tho, a statement from our FDA does not courage inspire.
This one may very well be 'buyer beware' and 'better safe than sorry', tho I must admit to not knowing.

As is the case with most things that are yet unsure....... moderation. At least that's what my Gramma always said.

Oh my!!!! I don't fight with the Other Kat! I would not dare. (she'd kick my rodential cracker)
