Default who's using smart fly turbo regulator

Am about to go to li ions for my next 40%er. I'm already using the smart fly pro power expander and 1 receiver. What kinds of experience has anyone had with the turbo regulator. I'm a little concerned about the single point of failure with 1 regulator and 2 batteries. Second battery doesn't help if the reg fails.

Got three 40% all with the same set-up going on third season. Pro expander with turbo regulator, so far no problems.

The Turbo reg actually has 2 regulators in it with a common control. The control. The control fails on. I have never heard of a Turbo reg failure.

I have set a Comp-Arf MX2 up with Power expander and Turbo reg and found it a great set-up.

I second that I have the super reg and power expander...what a great product! No more worries about equalizers, Y ing servos or having places to plug in your 10 digital servos.
