So does anyone have a personal review on this yet ? The deadline on the discount is quickly approaching and I am trying to decide if this is an item I need. Anybody ?

?!?! Wouldn't you wait for a "gently used" one for $5.00?!

Mine would be at least $25.00 because it wouldn't be "Gently Used" and you still would need to pay for testing and evaluation...

Why do you think I was asking for a "personal review". I was hoping I could find a not so proud owner of this state of the art product so I could take it off their hands. Maybe someone with a "flip phone" that is having trouble getting it to... tag,or talk,or link or whatever it is these new fangled things do.

I have it sitting on my conference table in the shop... I was supposed to install it and show it off. However family issues popped up and I just lost some time....However I have messed with it on the table using a set of LED flood lights and a set of H3 bulb fog lights. It does exactly what you guys have read.
Here is another way to make this decision. If you need a power distribution block and your going to spend the money to buy a quality fuse block then why not add a few dollars and have some extra features.
One other thing I have to say. This is a very heavy metal module. It had some quality girth to it. So if your thinking it's a plastic box with crappy screen terminals you would be wrong. And it comes with some very heavy wire to hook it up and it has trigger wires and it has a freaking USB extension cable that is super heavy duty.
So maybe this small review will help you if your on the fence. It's pretty dang tough and built for a Slingshot or a RZR....

One last thing. I know it's been mentioned in the thread earlier. But I want to mention this again. It can replace an add on fuse box. It even has more capacity as far as amperage....
I don't worry about not having physical switches. One reason is because it will pass current without a phone present (just like a fuse block). The BONUS is having the Bluetooth as an optional controlling mechanism....
I guess what I'm saying is its like having a heavy circuit block with the additional capability of of Bluetooth voltage monitoring. If the zones are programmed to be ON then they will always be on. So you can add a physical switch to that circuit if you want it.
Hope that made sense. I just didn't want people to skip over this because they were afraid they needed a phone to work it. YOU DO NOT..... you can take 2 minutes to hook it to a computer and tell each zone to be ON and they will be. Then even after you power the module off it will keep the programming.

Sounds like it's well worth the money then especially since I still need to add a fuse block anyway.
Thanks @rabtech for that push I'm off the fence now I just wanted to make sure I didn't land in a big ol' pile of pig shit. -
Well I felt terrible that I didn't review the product like I said I would. But tonight I was reading some of the post that had questions. And I knew that I had messed with it on the table enough to know some of those answers. Hopefully what I was saying kinda filled in the gaps.

Excellent information!

Yes @rabtech it did help and I understand exactly what you meant... you sold me on it, Im ordering one tonight since I'm having a hard time finding a "gently used" one
Yea it's to new to find a used one.Here is where im going to put mine. It will replace the 5 fused zones here.

I should probably redo my wiring too...

If I had an inkling of smarts about electronics it would be so useful!

Since it is powered by the battery, can I use my phone to turn on a circuit when the key is off?
( ie my interior lights as I walk up to it in the dark.) -
Is that crickets I hear???
