MUCH easier to seal = more reliable
for a 'real' installation easier to bend and to isolate the loads from the wb
- it is however permable to the oil in Water Wetter (thats where the everpresent stink comes from)
water loss is insignificant for a typical system, and quite irrelevant for testing
unless one buys super expensive screw clamps with rolled edges, etc.; over time the ends get chewed up, just trim 'em
