[Jan Schmidt]

Ted,
Nice fuel cell. How many gallons does it hold and what did it cost?

ATL works directly with customers - I e-mailed ATL directly
(atl at atlinc.com)
and worked with David Dack. The cell was a custom build and is top
notch. 

I tried Fuel Safe first via their e-mail address and via their phone
number.
They basically ignored my request for info (The e-mail got a form
response to
call their phone number - my messages there never resulted in a return
call).
Another local guy did get through to Fuel Safe and also had a custom
cell
built.

I'll go back to ATL for my next cell, and any cell after that. David was
great
to work with.

Oh, and you can see a pic of the cell here - yes, they did 'custom' logo
it:
