This is an educated guess, but I expect they are what Apeks calls the TX100 (Flathead), TX50 and T20. Don't bother with the TX100 first. Not seen the 2nds, but *appear* to be a lighter version of the TX50 2nd. TX50 is normally the DST sealed turret 1st and the TX50 second. I use the non-turret DS4 firsts and TX50 2nd as my primary, with a TX40 2nd as backup (same as 50 without the cracking resistance knob). You may want to consider the turreted DST for stages. I believe some of the WKPP guys use unsealed US4s on the back. I think the T20 is probably an unsealed UST 1st, and the T20 2nd doesn't have the heat exchanger of the TX40-50. See http://www.apeks.co.uk/. The DST and DS4 1st and TX40-50 2nds are bombproof, I've used several of them in very cold water and never had a problem.
