Any good? I like the fact that it's LSD allways and has lock as extra.

Do some google searching for forum reveiws. I forget off the top of my head but I remember some good reasons that swayed me away from purchasing one.

They have a significant history of failures and difficulties unless they are somehow drastically better than they were a few years ago when I looked into them

Only electric locker I would consider is the Eaton E-Locker.

The main problem with the Ected is that there is no true mechanical link to lock it up, only extra pressure applied to the cluck pack via a servo and electro magnets when turned on. Therefore in extreme conditions it can still slip, and when it does, the clutches are usually fried and need rebuilding. Thankfully the design engineers at the company knew this ahead of time and did away with the non-serviceable cone style LSD and uses something more similar to an Eaton posi. So at least they are rebuildable.

x 2 on all. To point out though it is only (at this point) serviceable at the factory... Pass... go ARB/Ox/Zip/or E-locker.
