I watched both videos on the page. The longer one is the most interesting, but he doesn't really get into the design of the antenna. I'm sure that's on purpose because he want's to protect his IP.

I'm interested on comments on this particular video:

I'm half tempted to buy one just to try it out for a while and then cut it open to see what's inside. I'd probably need some help from the community here to help me understand what I'm looking at...

...unless it's just snake oil, which I hope isn't the case.

picked up the 2m/440 version a few weeks ago, on my gmc terrain it seems to work just fine, really cant tell a difference between it and a 1/4 wave 2m I had on before. it looks good and low profile at only 7.5" tall

Interesting...

I'd like to try one. Definitely beats tall clangy whips.

The guy needs to wear a white lab coat and frizzle his hair a little, though.

talked into a couple repeaters on my drive into work today and simplex on my ride home,, it does work well,,

I really think this guy needs to lower his price and sell more vs high price and sell a few

I was expecting the thing to have some weight to it but it feels like a hollow tube, lol,, if it didn't cost so much id cut it open and see whats inside
