Supercharger oil

Just bought an HKS supercharger. Installer went through entire bottle of supercharger oil on installation. I understand this stuff is quite expensive, like $265/800ml. Are there alternatives from other manufacturers like Kraftwerks, Jackson Racing, etc.

Other companies put these type of drive systems together as well. But not sure how to compare the fluids. I see some stuff on Jegs site by Paxton approved for Vortech. For same 800ml fill amount, I'd be spending the same money. Wondering if these fluids are similar enough, like some oils, to work. My gut tells me I'll be ponying up for a new HKS bottle.
