Yeh im not sure what the go is with innovate, ive had 2 ppl with the same thing happen to, there now on 14point7 kits with no issues. The current innovate kits also seem to have grounding issues, ive had to cut the earth wires on the sensors and ground elsewhere otherwise the readings seem to go stupid at times

Not sure, Delco thinks my sensors may be ok with another brand WB controller. That would be nice, one sensor just never worked with the Innovative LC-1 and the other only lasted about 15,000km's in the missus and I think it started reading incorrectly a while before that even.
My last sensor seemed to be reading stupidly rich with the LC-1.

Yep, spartan controller and WB sensor. I think it was US$125
If you buy a controller from him he sells the O2 sensor cheaper (US$50) to go with it. US$75 for Bosch 4.2 WB O2 sensor only (If I remember correctly).

I have not had any issue with my MTX-L either
maybe it is just the LC-1 that was having issues
I noticed that they don't seem to have the LC-1 listed anymore, now have a LC-2 listed

I had trouble with earthing with my mtx-l as well. Kept getting different readings from the mtx-l gauge to the reading on the tunerpro dash.

I have had no issues with the MTX-L or LC-1 other than a dropped sensor
