First of all, the comparison.
Zoomed wipeout uses the same main ingredient then F-10. In MUCH smaller quantities. Basically, it is already diluted, while the F-10 is concentrated and you mix it with water.
Both use Dimethyl Benzyl Ammonium Chloride.
Zoomed has 0.13 % Dimethyl Benzyl Ammonium Chloride (one tenth of one percent)
99.87% "inert ingredients" thats where your water, deodorizer, etc comes into play. Nothing that repels mites, btw.
F-10 has 5.4 % Dimethyl Benzyl Ammonium Chloride
0.4 % Poly hydrochloride
94.2 % inert ingredients
So you see, between the 2 main sanitizing ingredients the F-10 has, it comes to almost 6% of the entire amount.
Whereas in the Zoomed only 1/10th of ONE percent is the main ingredient/Sanitzer. Much, much diluted already.
Now to price.
Zoomed can cost around $6 plus shipping for 8.75 oz to $15 plus shipping for 32 oz. So..lets say about $.50 per oz.
F-10 costs about $16 shipped for 100 ml. However, that is a concentrate. If you use it in the STRONGEST recommended dilution, which is 4 ml of product to a liter of water, you still get a total of 25 liters of product. That is 845 oz or 6.6 gallons.
Most people use it at the 2 ml/liter strength, which then gives you 50 liters of product or over 13 gallons. You could hit the golden middle at 3 ml per liter...and pay about a penny per oz.
Either way, with the F-10 you have a TON of sanitzer that is also superior and doesn't add unnecessary "deodorizer" chemicals.
I mean if you pay $15 for 32 oz of Zoomed or
$15 for up to 1690 oz of F-10 which is also a better sanitizer
Do the math 
Ok, I hope I didn't mess up anywhere with MY math, but I'm pretty sure I got it right...
