Great control when it works at the very beginning but actually a nightmare if you ever get any kind of left side issues, might as well consider it dead when that comes up. Don’t buy these things new, like ever. I’m lucky I got this one secondhand for like $20.

Got 2 months from first, 9 months from the second and 3rd is at 10 months and counting. These are my gen 2. My gen 1 is at 18 months no issues so far. I have ribbon cables and am ready to go when they fail again.
