Lids?

I have seen a few types of lids, ones with whatmans and rubber injection ports, 1/4" hole with polyfill, 1/4" hole w/ tyveck and just a jar ring with a filter disk or tyveck disk.
What does everyone else favor and/or use for their lids?

I used tyvek all season, and in the end went back to polyfil for most of my jars. With an RTV injection port either way.

Thats what I think I am going too stick too. The 1/4" hole w/ poly isnt consistent. Everytime you are going to have different amount +/-.
A lid w/ 5 or so 1/4" holes w/ a Tyveck disc seems to be the way too go, well for myself anyways.
I have only seen one video tek that shows using just a jar ring and a tyveck/filter disk, I am still curious about the effectivness of this.
I'll do a side by side some time and see unless someone chimes in with their 2cents..

Thought maybe you got better GE or somthing since thats the point of having poly/tyveck lids in the first place.

You only need enough GE for it to breathe. You aren't adding a turbocharger.
