I just got an RO system, can anyone recommend a good "reconstitution" product?  (I'm not sure of the right term for that stuff)  I've heard of a product called "RO Right"   Is it any
good?  Does it do any pH buffering?  What will it take to bring down the pH of my 8.6 pH RO water?  (yes, I know, you can't really measure the pH of RO water, and yes, my tap water comes
out at 8.6 too)

What else should a newbie like me know about running a tank with RO water?  :)
