I am lazy to day, to much work to type it out again. It has been discussed previously. I did invite them to send a sample product to the convention to create interest in their device but They never replied back.

Not having watched the video, it kind of lost me when I read that you had to move all the brood frames to the top super. At that point I wasn't interested. Perhaps for someone with a hive or two and the time to do this, but for me the impracticality cost my interest.

Thanks Apis and Perry,

Didn't remember it being discussed before. I just noticed Amazon was offering it, so I was curious. I'd have to hear a lot of positive reviews before I jump on the bandwagon.
