Want info on Savant Gel Pumps

[chris burns]

Howdy,

Our lab needs to replace the vacuum pump that we use to dry our gels.  We
are thinking about the Savant (GP100) pump, as the oil-free design is
particularly appealing.  The company claims that the pump can be run
without any cold trap whatsoever.  Does anyone out there have any first
hand experience with one of these things?  We'd really like to get some
oppinions before we buy.

Thanks,

Chris
