Brian, I've used the Haefely and the Keytek systems you mention. For ease of handling, the Mini-Zap wins, but if you need very high voltages the Haefely has more capability. Personally I like the Schaffner 435 better than either one. It is lighter weight, more comfortable to hold, swappable battery packs, internal electronic polarity switch and presetable discharge counter. I particularly disliked having to plug and unplug things to change polarity.
