They are very new. I don't know how many people have actual experience with them. Reports I have read from those that used them were very positive.
Seems to be a fairly direct knock-off of the Ellison TBI, which is probably the most widely respected TBI out there.
I would love one for my AeroVee, but:
1) they are expensive, and
2) the AeroVee is a bit small - fuel apparently does not atomise well enough, unless you have a big engine sucking on one end...

I suppose. It is cheap relative to the original Ellison, but expensive relative to the Revflow and Aerocarb (both around USD300) - although neither of these is quite as good as the Ellison...

What I like about these is that they keep working even with only gravity feed.
