WavySea vs SeaSwirl

I'd be curious to hear some opinions from those that have one or have had both.

I had both:

wavysea: you can control the speed and any angle you like ( or just let it do 360 ) without touching it BUT if the power fail, after restart you have to reprogram it again < it's a pains

Seaswirl: you can't control the speed but you can control the angle, I think it only can do 90-180 degree.

I like the wavysea better, I hooked my tunze nano to it and I also hooked it to my back up battery and no concern at all if the power fails.

I have both the wavy sea and seaswirl on my tank right now.

The wavysea is a nicer product due to the angles you can control and the speed. I did find it difficult to put a loc line adapter to angle the water flow downwards. But that is the only drawback.

The seaswirl--I had mine for five years now w/o any prombelms (knock on wood) It's nice for the price. If money wasn't an issue, go with the wavysea.
