I tried them tonight and wow, so much smoother and 90% of the tap. Unfortunately my pics are to big to upload, description is, they are made from stainless, 4 times distilled in one run, what do you pros think of this method, have you tried it?

A little small on the thumpers but I won't judge ya, what are you running and how much are you charging your thumper with?
With one thumper ran at a good speed in the winter I get 85% sometimes, as low as 155p during the summer though. Temp plays a part for me because I run in uncontrolled environment.

Easy to right click & "Open With Paint", hit "Resize" and take the larger number of pixels down to 500 & save.
Should work.

Correct. Do not save them as .BMP, though.
Looking foward to your pictures!!
