Just a quick post in case anyone was waiting for a current update. Ended up with a really bad stomach flu and didn't go to the mountains this last weekend. Still on the tail end of the bug but I will be trying to go to a nearby quarry or some place similar soon. That way I can at least do some minor testing. Will update then.

Looks to me like it's the same price as genuine ARB lockers in continental europe. Which makes it totally uninteresting in my mind.
Totally agreed. Especially when you consider the amount of install work involved, and the breakdown you get if it fails is pretty serious.
Right now the Norwegian kroner is weak compared to other currencies, dunno how this is with your money, but I bought my ARB's when the dollar was for cheaps making it well affordable.
I agree with part of what you say but the two things that keep Tom’s statement from applying to me are:
1) ARB doesn’t make E-lockers (which is what I have been looking for since I first considered a locker for the Jimny)
and;
2) I won’t ever purchase an ARB product again.
Admittedly, the second item is personal (nothing to do with quality) and probably doesn't apply to anyone else on the forum.
I do wholeheartedly agree that if I am wrong (and I could be) and the quality of this locker isn’t up to the quality demonstrated by other Chinese lockers, a failure up in the mountains would be serious. It wouldn’t be catastrophic but would be a real pain.
Another point I can confirm is that this has never been about price. It is correct that I could get an ARB rear locker and compressor installed for the same price.

I watch the videos from Japan, some sweet action going on there. I came across this video by the same guys, it's fitting the same e-locker That zukebob has got. Fascinating, I'm saving up my pennies........
