I bought the 4 Hard wired system last year. They do provide good movement, but like stated a couple times above they are tough to get in and out. Only used it a couple times on public hunts but its nice on private stuff cause you can leave the battery and wiring out there.



If you build it, they will come

Leave that crap at home, save your money and make a jerk string. I have used them, they work good but I aint paying for them. I have been called cheap but prefer the term frugal.

Got my answer. They are Higdon. Didn't realize the box went under water. Thought the box went in the blind with a cord running out to them.

Too bulky! I use the cheap academy duck butts. Cut in half and insert a weasel ball Velcro back and off we go!

Yes they work. They are bulky, heavy, take up a lot of room in the boat, and a PITA to deal with on every hunt.
They do work if you want to deal with all the other issues though.
If you shoot(not hunt) ducks on private potholes that you can just drive up to they will work just fine.
