Status: offline 		Sheesh! I've tried McDaniel, Tower, Hobbico...Most either come apart after too many uses (McDaniel), or the battery fails (Hobbico-shorty). Also, Ive found a big difference in the ease of attaching / detaching the starter from the glo plug -- Twist on/off is my preference. Haven't used the Hot Shots. The best one I ever saw was from Radio South (Pro Driver), but it's kinda bulky with a 1400 receiver battery / LED setup in the case.

What's your favorite?

Thanks for the tip on that thread. It looks interesting, but I think I'll stick with Radio South. Is there a different jack available for the RS unit?
