just installed a remote bottle opener

Just installed my Zex remote bottle opener.
And I can honestly say. It's a peice of shit and wish i knew that somewhere out there is a better one before i bought this one..

First, out of all the zex products i've bought. They've come neatly inside nice little black boxes. hell even the blowdown tube came in a nice little box.
-The opener came in some peice of shit packaging you'd expect at walmart.

It came with no instructions and I had to ask Jerry(asiansensation) for his NX instructions.

It came with 3 fittings. One fit and the other did not. So assuming that since its universal. the other fitting is for other bottles. So then the bottle opener wouldnt tighten over the fitting. So needless to say i drilled out the other fitting to make it work so i can fit this tiny spacer. Needed this spacer to be able to tighten the bottle valve looking part. so it doesnt flop all over the place.

Needless to say. I'm a little pissed. And i haven't even started wiring it yet.

Ive got a NOS brand opener somewhere in the garage...it definatly looks way better quality than that one and the guy I got it from never said anything bad about it.

Yeah it just strikes me as strange that they would put a product like this out.
