Great for seaplane short-haul duty. If the engine quits, lots of "runway"...
Matches Fram orange can efficiency. Typical for a paper filter with resin of glass fibers mixed in.
Ultra holds more dirt. Thats important to go 20,000 miles if you want.
Get a youtube free account. Post a video every time you do an oil change with some receipt documentation. The youtube posting date is the date stamp. Can't be denied you did it.

Power: 750 hp
Turbo Beaver: 680 hp
Old Beavers had 450 hp
Guessing the wing is the same; more weight?
Keeping the CG in the same place must mean some batteries are near the firewall and an equal number aft.

Saltwater, high voltage, aluminum fuselage, What could go wrong?
Let me be the first with the jokes:
1. Range anxiety reaches new altitudes with this.

has the Boss being more efficient than PuroOne. Both aren't bad on efficiency. PuroOne is a cellulose (wood pulp) media mixed with resin or glass fibers, one of those mixed in.

Does the new PuroOne tear? Not sure if I trust that company with paper filters yet. Boss is fine though.
Wait, efficiency isn't higher. They say "99% removal" on their website...
