It's fine, until it isn't

Pros: Rugged design Easy to assemble Works as advertised, until it doesn't (see Cons)

Cons: Input connection sucks. It breaks free of the circuit board or pushes in and becomes unusable in approximately 6 months. This renders the unit useless.

Overall Review: I've had two of these units now. I purchased it initially due to it's rugged rating / drop protection, which it does provide. However, the socket connector is the Achilles Heel of the unit. I will not purchase again, nor can I recommend this enclosure.
