Good post Humi, that had me laughing.
Looking it over the deal on the PMX is unbeatable. The AP1200 has a higher load capacity but the PMX can handle 90lbs (TEC180 weighs about 20kgs).
I am in no rush either. My NJP seems to have improved with age. I think the gears wear in over time and get smoother. Guide error numbers these days can get very very low even with PA a tad off.
