Do a search on site for reviews and the same sort of posts that you have made,
Is it for work?
Is it for hobby picking?
Is there a budget?
The wendt gun is the better of the normal ones with the HPC one next, but which one depends on your persiverance, practice and money to spend,

Multipick, expensive, batteries,
You will have to have a look yourself at prices and suppliers through google or such like but you likely need to prove your a lockie to buy one,

You will not get the Wendt for that money,
Do you have hand picks?
Why do you want an electric pick?
Are you hobby picking or a locksmith?

Trust me leave the electric pick for a later date, you need to understand what your doing with locks and how to pick them and be able to pick by hand before you consider an automated pick,
If you are just a hobby picker as well i would suggest you dont get one at all,

Multipick is the firm, expensive is the cost without me actually going searching for it myself and batteries is what it runs on,

Bottom of the pile,
You wanted the best of the normal EPG's well thats Wendt, the second best is the HPC,
If you want the cheapest then the E100 is probably it,
Someone posted another site that sold EPG's quite a lot cheaper than that but i cant remember who but it was recently (think it was bpc)
Search this site for further info on what others think,

Is it really that bad? I'm considering a electric pick too, being a gadget junie how can I resist, but I'm sure the wendt is verry expensive, at least all their other tools are! HPC is priced a little better, but really, how effective are all these picks any way? From what I've read they are not really a solid solution, so is paying more really that advantagious?
(btw, I'm mostly in this as a hobbiest but I am also taking the foley course)
