I don’t know anything about HolyMicro’s device, but I want to commend here the customer support from MicroKit’s LHS. My unit was sometimes not powering up on first try; they took it back, ran multiple tests on it, and even though they were unable to replicate the problem they still sent me very fast (2 days turnaround) a replacement unit that works flawlessly. This after spending an hour or more with me on the phone trying to diagnose the issue. 
 

My installation, btw, was under three hours of shop time. I ordered from Spruce the correct wiring, cut the inspection panel myself, ran the cable to behind the audio panel under IA supervision. All the avionics shop had to do was hook up power (from an unused MB fuse), gear switch, and audio (using the ADF input on my audio panel). They had no problems with it, even though it was their first LHS install. 
 

Love the unit. Gives me peace of mind about not forgetting the gear. And BTW, if I ever hear a warning I forgot to put it down, I’m going around, be it at 500 ft or 200 ft. Something must have gone badly wrong on that approach and I don’t want to find out in 1 min or less what else I forgot.

For what it's worth, @Microkit arranged a sponsorship with Craig for the LHS announcement:

I'm not sure this is going as well as MicroKit hoped.  Might have been better to stick to what their perceived advantages are, vs trying to run down an established, well liked, vendor here.  

Disclaimer, love my LHS.

I probably didn’t make this very clear in my post — MicroKit is the established LHS vendor and MS sponsor - HolyMicro is the new vendor, does not seem to be a MS sponsor. 

The thread I linked to above was @Microkit’s product announcement from 2020.

@HolyMicro you would be better off deleting this post, signing up as a Supporter, and buying an ad, like other legitimate business do. 

If you do that and re-post an ad for your product, you don't have to cut down another product to sell yours. There are hundreds of satisfied LHS owners on here and coming in and cutting down a product they love didn't win you any friends. Also making exaggerated claims about how long it takes to install a competitive product on a Mooney didn't help, when I doubt that you personally have installed any of the competing product on a Mooney. Sell your product on its own merits, offering people another option. There's plenty of room in the marketplace for two good products. Time will tell if yours is one of them.
