The springs work okay, and they do not fatigue over time. I put heavy duty keyrings on the ends of mine, so I can have a lower tension setting for each spring as well. Pyrex mirror is a plus if you are lazy and/or impatient. If cost was not an issue I would go pyrex and ditch the fan+battery+wiring to keep it nice and simple.
