To really shrink things you design your own boards with the processor on it like you did.

What do you think about the competing product thats about $299.

Does theirs have more features or are they just after a greater profit margin?
The $299 SmartTop controller is a nice design which replaces the stock top relay under the dash. It works exactly the same as the existing version Robotop.
