Cheetah Screwless Snap In Elec Devices
Saw this in Machine Design magazine and wondered if anyone here has used this system. Looks pretty cool.

Get Cheetah to link up with P&S PlugTail and they'd really have something, eh?
some guy was raving about these at another forum, he was impressed with "the speed" , and the "ease" ....ooh....ahh,but since they sell adapters that allow other Mfrs. devices to be used in the special boxes, who needs 'em ?I've seen lotsa gimmicks in my time, and these are probably just the evolution of plasticky crappy, push-in, stab-loc, flimsy, forgettable, hard to find, cheap, riveted, two-of-a-kind, non-repairable, DIY enhanced,... garbage ......and another thing,
....they seem to think that people are angry and fed up at the sight of the little 6-32 screws in the cover !
other than that, they look easy enough so that Joe or Jane HO do not have to sprain their widdle wrists, because of those pesky screws, or go for counseling after having to look at them day in and day out in their brand new starter castle.......::).

Kinda what I was thinking. What's the point? Probably cost 3x what good stuff does, and aren't worth a flip.
I was surprised at the pricing - it did not seem excessive at all. The list is on my work PC, but send me an item or two for which you can compare and I'll tell you what the price is.
As far a quality is concerned, I will let you know after I rec my "Cheetah Challenge" kit and then order a few devices (the kit only contains boxes - to "encourage" you to buy their devices)
We'll see . . . .
Might be a good thing, I'm just suspicious.
