Differences between hub motor with Torque sensor vs mid drive motor

I have Flatout in all of my 26x4 fat tires. I saw a YouTube video that compared Mr. Tuffy Tire Liners, Tannus Armor, Green Slime, and Flatout. The Flatout performed the best. I've got 1200 miles on my main ebike, lots of trail riding, zero flats. I buy the 32oz bottles and put 16oz in each tire.

 
What I found odd about that demo is that he used a power drill. I have yet to have a tire attacked by a drill while ridding! Okay, so we have strayed off topic and I will take advantage of that for a humor break. I am in an office building with everything from attorneys, plumbers, to child psychologists. You can tell when the psychologist has had a client because there is pee on the seat. Across the hall is a Taylor. I don't know how swift she is. I was walking to the mail boxes when a young woman just walked passed holding a dress and asked, "Do you know were the place is for altercations"? Now I need to replace a mid-drive.

That stuff has worked for me across a wide variety of punctures, both as a tube sealant and as my tubeless sealant. Survived a 6-nail puncture (nailgun strip) once on a fat tubeless tire with Flatout. Use it on my Bullitt where the tires are much narrower and pressures much higher (60 psi front and 70 rear). Its only failure was very recently when something - I never figured out what - put a 3/4" tear in my tire casing and a similar slice into my front tube. Flatout everywhere. Tire (20x2.4") went flat in about 20 feet. Was almost unpatchable. Not much anything will do against that.

I found the new thinner flat out sucks in tubeless. the sealed holes always weep and you can lose 8ox in a month or two. I dont have any of the regular to test it out.
 
When I get a little slice in a tire I fill it with gasket making sealant. Works great. After a huge homeless encampment was bulldozed as a public health emergency, someone was going around smashing bottles on all the MUPs. The brown beer bottles are the worst because you can't see it until you are on top of it and hear that you are breaking glass with your tires. The encampment had no sanitation, no water, and there was a fire. They didn't have any kind of latrines. It took a crew with three bulldozers and other heavy equipment with a team of 12-15 an entire week to clean out the encampment. I heard that there were sharps everywhere.

I talked to FlatOut maybe a year ago and the woman I spoke to on the phone told me the viscosity on the version Home Depot sells is no different than the Sportsman Formula that everyone uses on their bikes - at least they before the bike version came out. I have had great experience with the original stuff so no interest in experimenting. I did also have it seal a puncture on that same 2.4" tire. The one where it didn't it was literally at night, below freezing, with a full load of groceries and I was just not in the mood to go hunt down the culprit for posterity's sake. Was my first need-roadside-repair flat in over two years so I guess I was due.

I bought it as I had no luck with the regular flat out on our 70 psi tandem tires. so I bought the thinner stuff but then decided to go to tubeless and used that. the tire held air well but it leaked out the punters always. I would see wet spots in the same places on the tires. every day.
 
I use Flatout Sportsmans formula (the yellow label) and I run my 26x4 fat tires at 18 PSI. 1200 miles, no flats.
