    This series makes my inner gear geek go into full thrill mode. The testing methodology was excellent at the get-go in episode 1, and this episode's double-check that demonstrated near-perfect adherence to the margin of error was a "wow" moment I usually can't offer a YouTuber. Cool! Awesome work GearSkeptic! (SUPER curious about the with-wind results comparing non-hx to hx in the future but this is a thrill for another day).

    I had personally been trying to do comparison tests before I came across your channel. You've saved me a lot of time. Your tests are also way more precise than my own. Much appreciated!

    I spend hours a day on YT, but no one earns my loyalty more than GearSkeptic. It's nearly midnight here and I'm tired as a dog, but god damn I'll always stay up for this guy's videos.

    Excellent as usual. I had been suspecting that the HX pots weren’t worth the additional weight, but hadn’t thought about whether they might be more worthwhile to larger volume users. Maybe they will redeem themselves a little when wind comes back into the picture. Can’t wait. Thanks again for your diligence.
