Default Electric Cutout

I know there are at least two companies who make the electric cutout. But I've forgotten who they are. Which one is considered the best? Thanks!

The QTP looks to be a little bit better material. Search around for a thread about QTP vs McCord. This guy has pics of the two units next to each other.
I myself have seen the differences, but I don't know if the McCord I saw was the first batch or the second, all I know is the QTP is badass.

Peace,
Craig.

I would like to know what kind of cutout controller you have and if it leaks when in closed position and if you have tried anything to stop the leaking when closed or do they all leak when closed..???

I just installed a FLP 3" electric cut-out and it works great. Go to my webpage @ www.avigdor.net to see and hear some videos of the cut-out in action <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I bought two mccords, one for myself and one for a customer... the screws that hold the plate on became stripped on both power plates and took some working to fix... other than that it seals very well, installation is straight foward and its easy to use with the light that tells you when its closed.
