Innovate LM 2 A/F vs anyone ??

Finally decided to get an A/F meter to eliminate guess work on setting up my carb ... I`m close , but not 100 % there .
I talked to Patrick at Pro Systems for his recommendation ( I have one of his carbs ) and was caught off guard when he said he uses an AEM unit and loves it .
What are you guys using and what are the pro`s and cons you`ve come up with ?
From what I can see , the Innovate unit has its own internal p.s. ( 9 VDC battery ) in addition to an external 12 VDC hookup . It also has an SD card option which the AEM unit doesn`t .... and the AEM unit is gauge vs a hand held unit .
If I can believe what I read on some of the forums , the LM2 hasn`t been as reliable as the old LM1 unit ???
Any comments would be appreciated .

I have the LM1 and it has been great. You are correct, the LM2 units have had some problems. My advice is try to find a used LM1. Check out the Innovate Forum. Also allot of good tuning information there.
