I had a plastimo tube until I read the article below which described it as " a useful addition to a stealth bomber'."

I have to vote for the echomax 230, every trial, including the one quoted above, shows it as the best performing RR on the market at the price and size.
I saved a good bit of cash and converted a non lit cheaper version to lit by fitting the top light myself, I also fitted an LED rather than incandescent version to make it consume less power and be more reliable.
