ok, so for the record, limmy's last buy was 101 oil with 203 grease. nubbinator and wfd both like 205 grease, and i'm starting to lean toward a slightly heavier grease. if you look at the application notes and composition documentation on dupont's site, the point of the PFPE greases is to stay stable whilst other things, the PTFE powder and a suspended oil do the actual lubrication. so, the oil actually does things like reduce coefficient of friction and the ptfe prevents wear and keeps separation between the parts.
target temperatures and viscosities are in this document:

http://www2.dupont.com/Lubricants/en_US/assets/downloads/Krytox_Overview_LowRes_H-58505-5.pdfhence, i'm thinking 205 for the grease, and then anything between 101 and 103 for the oil. between 101 and 103 there are actually really only very subtle differences in viscosity; the differences are a tad larger 30-ish C, where switch crosspoints are going to sit, but the biggest difference between then is where they really thin out. it they were under quite a bit more pressure, say in high speed applications, it would be quite important to differentiate between the grades, but i can't see a huge reason to prefer one of those three oil grades over another for our applications.
anyway, unless there's additional input (i know limmy's occupied right now, but wfd and others who have used krytox extensively, please chime in here!), i'm thinking 205 and 103 or 102. this gives a nice spectrum of viscosities with different mix ratios. i am also going to spec out a good reliable source of good but not medically precise needle and brush applicators, bottles, etc while we we decide on the oil and grease grades.
i suspect this will be the first product available from through geekhackers, which is the firm that i've set up to provide for the community. yes, i totally just ninja'd that announcement in. surprise!
anyway, chime in, people!
