MCRES Micro Revision 2 Reservoir

This is the cheapest reservoir I could find; using it as a fill res, so the secondary reservoir can be under constant pressure before the pump.The mounting hardware included is all stainless and looks decent. I removed the crooked swiftech sticker on the tank (goo-gone did the deed).This thing is pretty strong, I was able to man handle it pretty significantly. I definitely recommend this res.

the metal brackets don't fit onto the reservoir very well when you install them according to the directions in the box...other than that the reservoir are excellent quality

Great little res for smaller projects or even larger ones for that matter. It survived me running EG for a while with no cracks or staining. No leaks, looks OK. Overall very happy and would buy another. it's a strong little thing as well, just be sure to use the rubber washers when mounting, i.e. read the manual.

I have been buying the cheap 200ml acrylic box style reservoirs and they work great. Since there were none of those available, I ordered the Swiftech micro res. It is tall and narrow so just putting a double stick pad at the bottom of my case probably isn't going to be super stable. I did like that it came with hardware, so I am going to try to attach it to the bottom of the case with the included bracket. I think once the tubing is connected it will be good.

The Primochill hard tube fittings cannot fit on the bottom or top due to the indent bevel not being wide enough for the tube cap.They also struggle to fit on the side ports because the holes are so close together that the caps rush each other and as you screw one cap, the turning motion causes the other to unscrew.Lastly, the material this was made from is ridiculously flimsy... either that or the two I bought brand new were not actually brand new and were returned items. On one of them, the threads on the side port were worn so much that the fitting just slid in and out... I had to glue the fitting to the case.The second one leaked water from the front right corner... after a dab of sealant around the edges, it worked.

The res itself is great. It performs flawlessly on its own. The ports are nicely finished, the barb fittings are good quality, and the rubber o-rings work perfectly. I do have a few gripes about this product though.1. The mounting system is poor in my opinion. Metal hardware with an acrylic res doesn't really mix well, and the hardware itself doesn't fit properly, and scratches the res terribly, and it looks horrible.2. There are only cut outs for o-rings on the top and bottom of the res, not the dual port side.3. It's made to only work in one orientation.4. If you try to put a silver strip in as a biocide, it easily gets pulled into or in front of the output fitting, restricting the flow.It's a great product, it really is, but I think it would be better if let to be mounted by velcro, or double sided tape than the molded eyelets and metal brackets.

This reservoir does the job. I used the included velcro to mount it in my case. The mounting hardware just wasn't going to work where I wanted to install it, and honestly, I was recovering from consuming a bottle of Irish whisky the night before and I didn't feel like dealing with the noise of my drill, so the velcro was a godsend. I can see the water level easily and it is compact enough to not interfere with my other components, so what's not to like? I should have purchased one of these years ago.

These are pretty decent fluid holders small and just the right size...a lot threaded holes for different ways to install your system.Very easy to use
