[QUOTE="Reg Wilson, post: 517494, member: 10941"] As RM pointed out, the stitching on the Pro-swing is very poor and rots in a couple of seasons. It is not even nylon. I had to hand stitch mine with a stronger nylon cord. The struts come apart, and you can actually lose one half quite easily as has happened to me. Gluing them solved that problem, but then they can't be adjusted for different operators, and you need to get the lengths right before you make them a permanent fixture. Your product loyalty is is obvious Phase Technical, but the change in battery and control board is hardly a quantum leap in usability. There is no reason why the PI detector needs to be so heavy and cumbersome. Just look at how light the VLF detectors have become in comparison, and there is not one single reason why PI detectors (or ZVT for that matter) need to be different. The reason is simple. These detectors are built for company convenience, and consumer considerations come second. Why? Lack of competition. [/QUOTE]
