Digital Readouts?

Hi Group

I am looking for a DRO System for my Bridgeport Mill and my Off-Shore Lathe. The Mill has travels of 9.5" X 14" and the Lathe 8.5"
X 35" I do not require the full 35" of travel. 18 inches of X travel would be more than adequate for the Lathe.
Other than the regular suppliers like Sargon, Mitutoyo, Fagor, Acu-Rite does any one recommend any other units for Hobby Home use?
I have also look at Shootin Star and Ortex systems. Am I missing any to look at before I decide what to get?
Any additional information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Regards
Bill Blackburn
