These are pertinent points, and I agree with them all.
In my experience the PMC-10 is much harder to find than the
Mitigator, though both are as scarce as chicken's lips. I've bought
two Mitigators (one of which needed a new battery) and one PMC-10
(which was missing one of the plastic end caps and had one broken
switch). This is probably typical. You are more likely to find a
Mitigator in good condition than a PMC-10, due to the robust
construction of the former and the frailty of the latter.
