It appears Amazon basics is re-branded from super Tech. With that said I guess the super tech brand is pretty good I wouldn't have thought it always seeing it at Walmart

That wheel/bearing test has a problem that needs to be addressed, that is, after each test, he sands the wheel smooth. What is the surface roughness of the wheel at the beginning of each test? How much does it vary?

His methodology is a bit flawed but an interesting test. The flow test seemed fairly valid. I think this was posted in one of the oil threads on SD, figured I share it here.

Oh, and upcoming... Amazonbasics staples... Milk, bread, flower, etc..
