    Not looking back from the sabertooth. I've had zero issues after going with them. But I do agree that the MM's would be a lot less expensive.

    I will say though that I didn't have the deep cycle batteries with the MM's and that could have made a difference.

    You are right. I have been using MotoMonsters and despite having huge heatsinks and a 12V DC fan for cooling, the full load current was way too much to heat up the entire heatsink when i used my FLIR camera.....The Regenrative nature of Sabertooth is way cool.....
