Default Eliminator Chuck- any success or coments?

Was looking again at the eliminator chuck, I like the one handed bit change idea, and from all of the reviews it seems like a solid rig. I was wondering if any of you fine fellows has any real life success or horror stories to share.

Also, looking at the drawings, it looks like the chuck adds about 1/2 inch in additional length, is that about right?

Any feedback is greatly appreciated, as it takes a lot of convincing (and the jaws of life) to get my wallet open for a 'luxury item' such as this.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Doug

I have one and I like it, the only thing I don't like about it the Allen Cap Screw sticks out a bit to far from the chuck ...

But other than that it's a neat add on for the router...

The pros.for the chuck is it will add about 1/2" to 3/4" to the height and that can be a big deal when you need just a bit more height for the SHORT bits.
