i have both an innovate LC-1 and an MTX-L .... both have been performing flawlessly in everything i've thrown at them so i have no hesitation recommending them, having said that i really havn't tried anything else to compare them against.

i have 3 x 14point7 contollers jaw 1.03 , naw7s ,and a SLC DIY that i beta tested and an innovate LM-1 .the early 14point7 ones were very diy and basic but did work the new ones seem to work good i swap all them round and they all work the same .my innovate has corruption problems will just randomly tell you heater circuit failure and it just need recalibrated but that means removing the sensor which is a pain in the arse LOL its just what the LM-1 is known for .LC-1's seem like a good controller too lots have had suckcess

Got an LM2, LM1 and MTX-L. The LM1 and MTX-L have been great and had no issues at all, LM2 on the other hand has hardly worked. The SD card now has a piece of paper wedged in it as the card always falls out, it resets for no good reason and when upgrading the firmware I found out after bricking it that the programmer does not support win7 64 bit - instructions say it supports win7, they just didnt mention not 64bit (it gets to 90% flashing and bombs out).

But, the all the innovate products work fine with 12P's wideband input :thumbup:

I have just purchased a 2J9 and for my inexperienced level it is quite easy to get up n running.

i dig the completely customisable gauge screen too. Using Tewblog dash display

Yeah krusty knows, i would have sold him my display as that part did work, but after holding on to it for a couple of years I eventually decided that nobody would have a base unit without a display and chucked it out! doh!
