Has anyone used this dry-fire system?

I just watched a video from Iraqveteran8888, and this looks interesting. But for me, one video won't make the sale.

I've seen the video on this system. They are also setting up a lot at gun shows around here. I cannot say if they are good or bad, because I opted to buy one of their competitors, mantis laser academy. There are so many options with the mantis, I've barely scratched the surface. Neither system is going to replace live fire, but I've really enjoyed using mine. It has helped quite a bit with trigger control. The tripod that comes with mantis is pretty lame. Good for holding a smartphone, but not beefy enough to support a tablet. I prefer to use a tablet, because I can see my hits better on the larger screen. So I bought a sturdier tripod and a holder that is large enough for a tablet. To my knowledge, they have the laser academy, the x10 & the Blackbeard ( for ar's ).

Just buy a Pink Rhino laser cartridge. With both eyes open you can easily see where the laser dot hits the target.

A cheaper alterative is a laser boresight cartridge from Amazon. A laser boresight constant "on" vs. momentary "on" when the firing pin hits a laser cartridge.

The boresight cartridge allows you to see movement when you work the trigger.
