Seems we are about 50/50 split on the peghedz...
FWIW, I have used this device:

to get around the tedium of string changing, its sort of fun actually,
and fits my pegs fine. Admittedly, once I got the set correct, I change
lute strings very rarely.

Dear All,
I really don't think the planetary tuning pegs are necessary for
a
lute with good-fitting pegs. I find that a small amount of violin
"peg
dope" -- the hard, waxy type, not the softer gooey type -- is all
the
help my lute and vihuela pegs need.
On the other hand, I did get them installed on my cittern, and
they
are a godsend. So, like Ms. Carlin, I would recommend them for
wire-strung instruments, which have greater tuning difficulties.
Cheers,
Jim Stimson

A question for the Collective Wisdom:
Looking for opinions on planetary tuners for lutes or vihuelas,
cautionary tales, where to get them, which brands, how to install
etc.
Thank ye all,
