Question ORP controllers

I plan on ordering a Sanders or an Ozotech Ozonizer and have also been looking at controllers. Does anyone have input into what is a better controller, Milwaukee or the PInpoint? There is an $80 difference between the two repectively, but is it worth it? Any experience would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Pinpoint, is far superior. I have in the past owned both, ph and orp from Milwaukee, for that price I could not pass up. I was very disaponted at the quality and performance of both. My ph controler lasted about 2 years, and then it went into the trash. Orp controler was inacurate, I was not comfortable with it due to how much money I have invested into my tank to have a cheep controler fry everything. My pinpoint ph moniter, now in its seventh year is still running like new. The switch , that turns on and off the sylonid went out after two years, I sent it to Pinpoint for repair, I sware the sent me a brand new unit, and their was no charge for the repair.
As for O3 controler, I had one of pinpoint units, it ran great for over four years with no problems, exceptional. However when my O3 generator went out, I was offerd an unbeatable deal to sell the controler, so I did. I replaced it with on from Red Sea. It has the moniter, controler, and O3 generator built all in one unit. It is great. It has been working now for two years, It is a lower cost option than buying all the componits seprate. Highly accruate and adjustible. You might want to check one out.
Oh, yea to answer you question, Pinpoint.
