| Q: Where have the Phatty's gone!? |
It's a very long story that I won't bore you with, but here's a brief overview:- For the last four years or so, whenever possible we have stocked and sold the Phat filters in the knowledge that they were, by a country mile, the best carbon filters on the market. However, recently there has been several court cases relating to who owns the global Phat filter brand, the outcome of which is that the factory making the Phat filters are no longer able to sell the filters they produce as Phatty's. This obviously left the manufacturers with a bit of problem... So, the UK wholesaler and the manufacturer put their heads together and came up with a new brand - Rhino Filters. The Rhino's are a direct replacement for the Phat's, they simply don't have the Phat branding on them. Absolutely nothing has changed in the manufacturing process - they still are the only carbon filter on the market to use the original Australian Tiwest RC48/RC412 carbon in them, they're made in the same factory and all sizes and airflows are obviously identical. More information on these and other carbon filters can be found on the Rhino Filters website |
