New to RO/DI.. couple questions

[Aristarchus]

Are the ebay brands of RO/DI units worth the money? I see some 75 gpd units with the 4 gallon pressurized tanks and float valves for only like 100 - 119 dollars. Anyone had any experience with these? Is it worthwile to go with the more expensive/well known brands? And has anyone ever installed one of these under their sinks and added an above-counter spicket? How hard is it to install? And do these require a power outlet under the sink? I'm really excited to get my tank going as I have all my equipment ready, now I just need a RO/DI unit for that initial cycle! Thanks ahead of time

I have bought two units from aquasafe canada on ebay. Great systems and great people.
Its easy to install and works well. I own a aquarium maintence service and go thru lots of water. It makes all the 0 tds I can use. I use alot. I have 240-265 tds input most of the year. It goes nuts in spring and fall, when the farmers fertilize and the runoff from plowed fields.

When you check ebay only put rodi in the search box don't mention fish, reef or aquarium. I bought this one and it works well. http://cgi.ebay.com/AQUARIUM-2-110G...18247QQcategoryZ20756QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem
