    interesting device, kinda expensive without the sabre option. might pay $125 on a flyer just to try it out but without sabre....

    lights look a little small also. seems very portable though.

    It's up to $250, too much IMHO...

    As best as I can tell, it appears to be built using the "open-source" design that's been posted here at F.net in the past.

    While it looks like the work was done in a competent manner, I am amused by the ad's referrals to "The Engineer" and how simple it is to update it and re-program it... (But we're going to charge you if you want it updated...

    If I'm going to spend that much, that I'm going to go buy an Eclipse... If I want a cheaper one, then I will build it myself...

    It the lights were a little bigger i'd say it'd be GREAT! and for club practice I'd give $100 for one or two just to have some extra boxes around the club!
