That is the one that I have and I listed it's shortcomings in an earlier post. Bob, you mentioned about the tape slipping, well maybe it is because I haven't used it very much but the tape seems to be rock solid in any locked position. I am in the process of installing a 704" Donavon motor in a 21' sea-ray and I am using the hell out of it. Again my biggest complaint is that batteries seem to die at the most inopportune times.

I believe has a german manufacturer and uses a AA battery, this has the better on/off control and is more expensive. They look quite similar and are conceptually quite similar.
