That's a gamble as well isn't it? Considering that ferrous bits can come from other sources and affect the LN bearing which is not sealed.

Exactly! I would love to put the LN one and be done with it. The 600 bucks is not my concern. I'll still not be at peace unless I put the Guardian to watch over me! So, with the LN really not proven...
