I was leaning towards the GB70 but based on that the 40 makes more sense. No sense spending more than I need to.

Oddly, online reviews are all over the map.
I honestly put no stake in generic website reviews anymore. Most of the people I've met are too stupid and ignorant of their subsequent stupidity to be allowed to impact customer decisions or be viewed as a credible source of information. I had someone try and use mine without turning it on, and one who only connected the red terminal since "they only wanted to use the power".
^ Good point, expect at least some tried to use it without charging as well.
Just like reading reviews on certain snow tires you know full well are either mid level or just plain poor but reviews are glowing. Same goes for ones reviewed as being poor (but in actual fact are killer good )just because they aren't made by one of the boutique mfg's.
Tire reviews are such a clusterfuck. So many variables can contribute to poor driving dynamics including worn or broken suspension components, driving style, ever changing temperature and weather conditions, vehicle modifications, etc. I'm so sorry that putting Pirelli Sottozeros didn't enable your 1997 Camry to glue to a iced over onramp in -20C temps but that's hardly a tire issue. Same goes for truck guys who don't pay attention to load index/range and then complain a soft luggy mud tire that looks oh so cool feels weird under your 1-ton super duty.
I appreciated the video you posted by tirerack, real scientific testing with test controls and emprical evidence.
It’s like this for everything anymore.
People don’t take care of stuff or use it correctly then blame the manufacture or the seller.
Hell I had a guy write a bad review for a washer, my story as the seller and my service company who came and fixed it. Because he went threw 3 drain pumps in one year.
Never mentioned in the reviews that each of the drain pumps had screws go threw them because he wouldn’t empty his pockets.
