Why aren't there more companies making flat tube radiators sized for standard cooling fans? It is obvious that these types of radiators are cheap to make, mine which has an area greater than a BIX2 cost me $16 where a BIX2 is almost $100. Granted they put proper barbs on and have them painted but that wouldn't make them 5 times the price. Who makes the radiators for HWlabs, or do they make them themselves? Will we ever see reasonable prices? It seems that a competitor could come in and undercut HWlabs prices and gain a lot of market share. :shrug:
