[0 to 80%] I replaced a GCS 1764 with the 1794 because the 1764 had problems passing the video from more recent video chips, although it worked well with older chips. I presume that the 1794's ability to mimic the attached monitor accounts for the improved performance. I have not managed to test the ability to feed audio thru the HDMI connectors yet. My Panasonic receiver errors out when fed the HDMI video/audio. HDMI video feed direct to the monitor works fine. 5

[5.75 lb] Because you can enter a 1..4 number after the double hot-key, you can jump to whatever console you want. This is handy because I have 2 PCs and 2 Raspberry Pi's attached and the frequency of use is disproportionate between them. I have to say the front buttons being metal flaps are weird, but I never use them. If you did, you might appreciate a real physical switch. I expect these are mini-PCB switches behind the cool plasma cut metal. I also don't use the shared USB as the mouse/kbd is all I need to switch. 5

[5.75 lb] I have had no problems with Pearstone HDMI cables. Since I use a laptop and move around to various second screens (Once you go dual, you never go back!) sometimes the 3 footer is just not long enough. So I just bought a 10 foot Pearstone cable from B&H to handle the problem. I still use this cable for the short runs. 5

[5.3 VDC] Using the product with a collection of Raspberry Pi. Works very well. Able to switch displays quickly without any problem. USB follows along with no problems. Happy customer! 5

[4] I had some questions as to whether this would work with Surveillance Recorders. Support at B&H Photo advised that it should and it does. Saves a lot of space when you have multiple recorders or PCs. I wouldn't have had room if I had to have 4 monitors, keyboards and mice. 5

[4] I use this on my surveillance system with 3 NVR and a workstation. It works great, especially like the ability to share the speakers and microphone between all 4 pieces of gear. 5
