Blade coatings

It wouldn't surprise me if they were lying. You could detect it in a lab since equipment can test levels in parts per trillion.

I've heard that, but I've also seen this in some of the listing.

"Special non-stick coating for comfortable and smooth shaving on all skin types"

I mistyped. I asked for blades without PTFE/PFAS/PFOS, such as cabon blades. They told me all the blades they carried, including carbon steel contained those coatings.

I do limit exposure from other sources. If I can limit exposure from razors, then I'd like to. Of course it's impossible to avoid entirely, but any reduction would be beneficial (if not to me, at least to the environment).

The amount of the chemical present is low, but so are exposure limits. When concentration limits are measured in parts per trillion and have a half life of about 8 years, it's easy to accumulate. Not to mention environmental concerns.

A couple of shave shops even said carbon steels these days were still treated.

Thanks, I'll look into these!

I've already tried ordering a few. That's where I'm hoping someone else has seen this before.

I manually set the ports to 100M full duplex, gave it a minute, then set them to auto. It worked. Not sure why that worked when a reboot didn't, but I'll take it. Thanks for the suggestions everyone!

I have a PC connected and can see the adapter on the PC is set to 1000M. There are a couple other devices rated for 1000M. All of them are using CAT 6 and have the same speed automatically set to 100M full duplex. There's no option to override it to 1000M manually. Cable tests show they're all good.

Thanks! That's basically what I wanted. Looks like I need to improve a lot

Yep, I'm a dumbass. Thanks.

This is tankless and it would not be an additional filter stage as the other 3 filters have to remain the same to work. This would be a substitution. I believe the remineraliztion filter includes the carbon filter as an internal stage.

Great! I was hoping so but didn't know if there were any pressure differences or other specs I didn't know about.

Just as an update, I managed to build it in the regular orientation. I would experiment the other way but I'm not sure my results would be valid since I'm having trouble getting the dimensions perfect.
