5th Wheel Hitch latch - anyone have one?

I ran across this over the weekend and am considering trying it out.
http://www.butchsservices.com/5601.html

I considered the Blue Ox Bed Saver in the past but decided it took up too much space, this seems to accomplish the same thing in less space and at a lower price.

Has anyone added one of these to their setup yet?

Huh. Not compatible with mine (Curt Q20). Oh well. I guess I'll just have to keep doing what I've been doing...paying attention.

Actually it may. If you look in the customer pic gallery of the product site, they have it on B&W, Pull rite, valley even though the site is setup and list Reese.
You may want to send them a note, i did since my pull rite was not listed.

That is the only sure fire way to prevent dropping a trailer.

Is said right there on the site, "Will not fit the fallowing makes; ACF Stoughton, WI Hitch, Curt Q 20 & Q 24 Hitch, Hensley BD3 Hitch". No big deal. Until I do drop it. I sure have no plans on that though.
