Nice product, but really not worth the "coin." As for me, I'll gladly take the additional 30 seconds to crank my tie-down, and save all that money for more worthwhile items. Afterall, how often do people have to secure ski tie-downs? I trailer 4800 miles a year, yet only have to reach in and "crank" 10 times a season. Thirty seconds @ 10X equals 5 minutes of cranking all year. I'd rather figure out a way to charge for all the time I have to wait on some of my riding buddy's while they fiddlefart well past the time that we all agreed upon to be on the sleds in the morning.
