Looks like PN doesn't carry T-GEL anymore. They have something else called Power Gel. Has anyone tried it and how does it compare to the old T-GEL.

The good thing about the power gel is that its 8oz for $25 and says it can hold 10-12.5 grams of powder.

But the $19.99 4oz T-gel claims to hold 10g. if that's true, which is the better deal?

yeah, but those "servings" are diluted by the higher volume.
Let's see how they stack up:

PowerGel: $25, 240ml, 13g (max)
T-Gel: $20, 120ml, 10g (max)

Now let's see if we can do some math to figure this out. If you loaded up each with the max grams your favorite PH you get:

PowerGel: 54.1 mg/ml X 2 = 108.2 (serving)
T-Gel: 83.3 mg/ml X 2 = 166.6 (serving)

Now we'll use the arbitrary term "serving" to figure out how cost effective each is:

PowerGel: 108.2 / 25 = 4.3
T-Gel: 166.6 / 20 = 8.3

So it appears that T-Gel is almost twice as cost effective as PowerGel. Now just figure in facts like T-Gel is not a liquidy so it spreads easier, and it's made by Chemo, and Chemo has setup this nice board for us, and determine for yourself which is better. ;)

your calculation is off. power gel is 240ml and t-gel is 120ml so the former has 2X servings. it should be:

power gel: 54.1mg/ml X 2= 108.2 servings/25 = 4.3
t-gel : 83.3mg/ml X 1= 83.3 servings/20 = 4.2

pretty close now, but t-gel still edges out power gel by $5.

the only other concern i have is, can t-gel actually hold 10g?
 
Yes, and you get better absortion.
