I'd go with the 18. I have used mine for over a decade and it does everything I need it to do and does it reliably. The 28s are pretty fancy, but I just haven't seen a need for anything fancier that the FL18. On snowy days I put the lense cap on it so it doesn't get filled with snow. Although the new ones look like they have a way shallower cup. Save that other 200 bucks for maggots and beer.
Spend a little cash and get the 28 you will not need another flasher for years to come.
I have a vex 8 and used the heck out of it, it does all I ask of it. Brother has a Vex 18 we really like it too. So I bought a Vex 28 and was going to have the best for several years. Found out I am not the Tech savy enough to use and understand all its features. Couldn't get it to work like I wanted it to. Maybe just me. I took it back and was going to get an 18 or 20. Looked at the Marcum 5, bought it and am very happy with it thus far. funtwohunt[/quoteI use marcum lx7 and recently bought a flx28 ... theres nothing too fancy to figure out. Everything is already on the dash. As far as options tge flx28 hasn't change much other than a few face lift.
