Question How many out there using remote bottle openers?

Just would like to know the good, the bad, and the ugly of remote bottle openers before I even consider buying one.
Thanks.

Re: How many out there using remote bottle openers?

Hmm...

Good:
Don't need to get out of the car to open the bottle
Don't have to worry about a small leak draining your bottle by leaving it open for a long time

Bad:
Yet another thing to remember when you're at the starting line
Something else that can break

Ugly:
The horrendous bog at launch, when you forget to open the bottle
More wires in the car

Re: How many out there using remote bottle openers?

The NX one also needs occasional tightening of the clutch. When it's too loose, it sometimes will not open or close, which can be very annoying when you have a full bottle and can't close it right away.

Otherwise, it's super convenient!

If you get a remote opener stay away from the NOS.Go with the NX one.
