Default Inline Fuel Filter Options...

I am wondering what brand of in line fuel filters you guys are using? I have never really seen that many options other than the clear one that Sullivan makes (years ago I think it was called the Sullivan "Crap Trap"), here's todays version: http://www.airwildpilotshop.com/more...uct&sku=SUL189

I also used to use a H9 filter that was black? aluminum (I think) and it unscrewed, and had a red plastic frame around a mesh screen, that could be cleaned or changed. I no longer see this at the Airwild site, but I have seen a gold anodized fuel filter somewhere on the net.
The old round, fat Dubro aluminum fuel filters look like complete crap, and I've never used them, shown here: http://www.airwildpilotshop.com/More...product&id=385

There is one new style (thinner DIA) filter from Dubro, that might be better: http://www.airwildpilotshop.com/more...uct&sku=DUB162

The only other in line fuel filter I've seen, that looks like it might be worth buying, is this one from Airwild: http://www.airwildpilotshop.com/more...ct&sku=DYN2006

What other types/brands are out there, and what are you guys using? Is a fuel filter a fuel filter, or are some crap, and some quality? I'm specifically referring to GAS use here, in Desert Aircraft engine applications.
