I have had fantastic results with the ProArmor BUT that magnetic tether is likely the best tether out right now.
I have my ProArmor tether mounted on top of the steering block, how did you have yours mounted OP?

I have used the stock Polaris tether on all of our machines (8 or 9) since 1998 and have never had one fail to kill the engine when needed and this usually happens to my sled at least 2 or three times on every ride as the dumb ass rider (me in this case) falls off! Only once did the tether switch not kill the engine when it should have and that was because the tether was was wrapped around the powder bar and stretched and came off the D ring on my vest. Bad on me for not checking! I think that the stock Polaris tether switch is hard to beat but only my opinion here!!!!

Mine failed after 1 year using it on my 15sba. Now its on my 16 axys. I took the pro armor apart, (super easy). you can fix it in less than 30 minutes. Take it off, take it apart, clean the contacts with sand paper or anything to rough up the contacts. spray a light oil like wd40 in there, just a tiny bit, helps with corrosion. Now its worked good for 3 seasons since I've done that. Good luck
