I've since cut the tubes down to 6" & saved another ounce of weight. This also allows easier usage by not hanging so low.

The tube is actually 12" long not 18.

Rather than destroy the original clean side water tube by cutting it in half, I called Cascade Designs & they sent me a whole new tube which I cut to 12" & attached the black plastic shut off, which they also included. I then attached this new tube assembly to the clean side, white nipple connector, on the filter. This eliminates the clean water bag & saves about three ounces. I'll post a photo.
