I love this remote! So far its awesome! The only thing I would reccomend, is to take off the connectors and teflon the threads. This will help seal it with perfect efficientcy, as there is no reason to ever take a chance with leaking air in the field! The look of this remote is shiny, and smooth, and the colour on the check valve is unique. Regardless of the looks, which arnt that important anyway, is the performance. I pluged it in, and it ran perfect, no problems what so ever. Another thing that I like about it, is the length. Its actually pretty short, but when you hook it up, it raps snugly around the side of your body, and under your arm. Doesnt get in the way, or get caught on branches, just sits there nice and snug! If it seems like it feels a little tight, just let it get worked in, and you will be laughing!
I'd reccomend this to anyone as it is top of the line, considering all the other remotes out there! Just go to www.opsgear.com! They have soooo much other A5 and 98 upgrades like you wouldnt believe! Buy it if your looking for a reliable and efficient remote.
Conclusion:
Looks great, feels snug, not loose at all, nice check valve, and simply the best out there!

Review:
As i have said i have not used a remote until now. I love this. It makes the marker way more lighter and maneuverable. This item is sturdy and very durable. It is easy to use and maintain. I have a few friends who have used lesser remotes (cost wise) with regret. Their main complaint was that the slide check didn't work properly on other remotes. This remotes slide check works great. Just crank down the knob and then back it off half a turn.. Hook it up to the marker then slid your slide check. The only thing i didn't like but it is the way most remotes are, was that the knob to turn on your gas can completely unscrew and if you are careless it could get lost. I still give this remote a 10 because the knob getting loss flaw is really user error though i'm sure some would want to make everthing idiot proof. This item is a bit high in price but when you lay your hands on it you will understand why. Quality comes with a price and it's not too high but higher than most remotes.
Conclusion:
It does what it is designed to do. It's a good quality remote that has a slide check that works the way it is suppose to.
