Yeah, I've tried one with the thumb control, friend of man has it on his. My hands are just a bit too crippled up to be able to use it anymore, guess I'll have to stick with the foot pedal.... Lack of mobility, decreased range of motion are the two main reasons I'm going to build the new rotisserie with a hydraulic motor to rotate it remotely, easier for me to turn the car into position rather then try to turn my body into position!!!!!

Dave I have the thumb wheel to although i very rarely use it, the foot pedal just gives you so much more control, i often use my head, knee etc etc to operate it, even been known to have it between my knees
