not thought through because water extraction is only in the middle
the water extraction should be flexible because the bladder can never lie on level ground, the Mr. Ing. should think about it

Cheap, but not very reliable
I have two, one of which leaks at the plastic patch that holds the inlet. A tiny leak, but a leak nonetheless. One drawback is that it's impossible to orient the water inlet. You have to tighten it all the way because there's a rubber gasket. There's no choice of orientation for the filling hose. Also, the outlet is very small, 12 mm in diameter, tapering to 10 mm to fit a 10 mm hose. If you use a 12 mm hose, it's best to cut off the tapered part. Also, the part is made of very soft plastic and crushes when tightening the clamp. It's best to replace the part with a better quality one.

Another drawback is that the outlet is vertical. So, there's no choice of orientation, but if it's under a floor, space will be needed, as the full tank is quite high, which is an advantage for capacity (120 liters for a size identical to a 100-liter Vetus tank), but you need at least 55 to 60 cm of available height.

I replaced the inlet elbow with a TrueDesign, mounted with Loctite 55. This way, the hose can be oriented in any direction.

I tested at a pressure of 1.2 bar, which is necessary to ensure a seal when the filler pipe is full to deck level. One of the tanks is OK, the other has a very small leak.

It should also be noted that the water outlet is located in the middle of the tank and extends about one cm inside. On a horizontal surface, the tank empties almost completely. However, when placed in a trunk with a sloping bottom, the usable capacity decreases. In my case, the bottom is 30 degrees, and I'm losing 10 liters per tank.

I tried a Plastimo to replace the leaking one. The hose connection system is different, allowing for reorientation, but I was unable to achieve watertight connections. So I ordered a new CANsb.

To avoid buying
A product is said to be specific to boats and therefore to the marine environment. In a week the eyelets of maintain smooth rust !!!! A real scandal to put eyelets crimped steel and not stainless as it should on a boat!

Quite expensive for rusting eyelets
Holds tight ... the closure is a bit "bulky", I would say ... all plastic-so far ok. But the suspension eyes are not made of stainless steel ... you should absolutely expect a water sports product. On my boat is basically nothing that rusts. So what's the point of offering a product for water sports, but it should be clear that it comes into contact with salt water? For too expensive.
