A breakage test of Chinese import braided fishing line (including fake Power Pro packaging) purchased via eBay. Line is rated at 40 lbs but breaks at under 20 lbs (closer to around 15 lbs.) Buyer beware for those who think cheap line off the internet is a bargain.
UPDATE: I got another brand of Dyneema line recommended by a participant in Alan Tani's forums. Did a quick down and dirty test. Breaking strength was higher than the stuff shown here BUT it was still well under rated strength. Next visit to the tackle shop, I'm going to pickup 10' of Power Pro and give that a shot.
UPDATE 2: And here's my test of genuine Power Pro. [ Ссылка ]
