Looks a third of the way from a Loobman to a Scottoiler. Never see it before, but designing a chain oiler isnt too hard with the amount on the market. I think the price is the deciding factor amongst the un-vacuum or electrically operated ones
Looks like one of their range won a Dire Best Buy award in 2011, so off the back of that I'd conclude it's reasonably well designed.
The loobman can be found here: http://www.chainoiler.co.uk/ (the articles page made for interesting reading.. I assume they tested the loobman against the one you ask about)

ATM its ok although its very dificult to get the right drip frequency.I went out yesterday for a round trip to hunstanton and back (160 miles) and the oil had run out before i got to hunstanton.so just a little fine adjustment needed i think.

Had a Loobman on the Falco for a while, never really worked properly and you have to remember to keep squeezing it which kind of defeats the object most of the time.Kwackerz wrote:Looks a third of the way from a Loobman to a Scottoiler.

The Tutoro ones did really well on the Ride test due to their cost more whilst still being a good product (unlike the Loobman).
Had a look on their website yesterday and it appears they have now branched out with an automatic version which is totally self-contained (uses the movement of the bike so stops you getting a puddle if you run the bike stationary for any length of time). Not sure how effective it will be and the reservoir seems to be bit of an awkward shape and must be mounted vertically but certainly a lot cheaper han the Snottoiler alternative.

Looks interesting, only £9 cheaper than a Scottoiler if you go for a like-for-like vSystem or Delux Tutoro package though. (I'll knock the £9 off as a forum discount if you want a vSystem
)
I'm curious to find out how it works, and would be interested to hear how you get on with it.

The V system is the normal Scottoiler - I've had one for some time now - excellent bit of kit.
