From what I can tell - the Vbox7 is the real deal DMS and the Vbox-:mad:10) is the WSI knock off.
Correct?

I am considering a Cband setup and want to avoid knock-offs and generally anything by WSI. Any thoughts on a positioner? Gbox is apparently unavailable / out of stock.
 
I know rpssat here in mtl carry both models, not sure what the difference, looking at the site now and the v-box 7 is $0.05 cents cheaper haha.
 
I just picked up a VBox-7 $30 on ebay shipped. It's a lot heavier than the VBox-X. Feels like a heavier power transformer in it. I think it will be fine.
 
I have a V-box 7 for almost 1 year now.
Electrical and electronic wise I never had any issue.
But, the connectors for the LNB/receiver is not the most sturdy one.
One of my cat's ran into the coax and ripped one of the connectors off the box. I ended up soldering a coax right onto the printed board, but it is still working fine.
When I opened up the V-box to work on it, I was surprised that it had a transformer in it and not just a el cheapo electronic power-supply.
