If you get Trailer Life magazine, the November issue has a nice write up on this product.
There are also a few owners that have this syetem. NABO ( Nathan and Byrd Mathis) have it installed on their Big Country.
It is true that it is not auto leveling. I wont argue the pros and cons of auto leveling... some people like it others may not. I do know that almost everyone I talk to about the Level Up system love it, but it seems these same people have had some quirk they have had to work out with the software. Doesnt mean its bad.. just has some quirks.
The speed and torque of an electric motor can be manipulated with gearing just like the speed and power of a hydraulic system can be manipulated by pump size, piston size etc.
I am actually in the process of purchasing this system. Trailer Life magazine reports that there is a $500.00 rebate on this product right now.
I called the manufacturer tonight and caught the owner just leaving. He said he hasnt even seen the article yet but the rebate is true.
Here are a few pictures of the system on NABO's trailer.
BTW, Rieco has been around for a long time making jacks for pick up campers. I do not know how new or old this product is though.
