Ice Helix 7 G2 - Thoughts / Impressions???

[sns2]

Hi Fellas. I just picked up an Ice Helix 7 G2. Will be a few weeks before I get out. For those of you that have fished with a G2 Ice Helix (7 or 5) can you give me your impressions of them both good and bad. I know I had heard there was some lag issues with the Gen1 units; is this still an issue with the Gen2 models? Also, how do you find them compared to your traditional flashers, as I'm assuming most came from a dedicated flasher. Thanks in advance for all replies.
