That's not Bosch, so there's no way to know the quality unless someone
here has experience with that brand, and it's a brand I've never heard of.
It's also quite pricey. I sell the stock Bosch units for a bit less and
modified Bosch units for a little more. I add a diode to the Bosch units
in a place that should make them last longer, generate less electrical
noise, and regulate better.
