Is there any difference between the Rocketbox &amp; the Skybox?

Yes, the durability of the sky box, SuperLatch security ensures your lid is secure to its base, and your gear is safe, and the skybox is Designed with internal lid stiffeners for added rigidity. It is also meant to work better with hatch backs with the tapered rear box design.

Yes! Having built with both, I cannot tell the difference. I weighed the pros and cons and took a chance and am glad I bought them. My kids 3 and 6 love them. You get more and the cost is less and the quality the same.

It's better on Highlander 2012 with Yakima cross bars than the factory ones, but still slightly interferes with the hatch. Since we had the skybox already and the cost of shipping back was half the price of the item itself, we ended up drilling extra mounting holes in the Skybox instead - even that it's not recommended by Yakima and voids the warranty. So if you did not order any of those yet, it may make sense to keep looking for a different cargo box for Highlander 2012.

They are identical. I believe the boxes are identical as well; some of the text is in english and some is in Japanese. It should say "Megaman" on the box instead of "Rockman" though.

I just got an Einstein recently but haven't had a chance to try it. From what I have read there were some issues with some of the heavier softboxes falling off. I would keep an eye on it as the Alien Bees mounting mechanism is different then the Einsteins - again the SPEEDRINGS are the same for Alien Bees/Einsteins - Good Luck and let me know! - Jeff

Skyscout is supposed to identify objects in the sky. Mine was pretty useless, working only on rare occasions. I gave up on mine long ago.

I know of no differences. The look exactly a like and are the same dimension as the ones from Cubie. I bought two from Sunfounder and they both are running software from Cubie.org

Go with the sundown. Caution you will need a deep box, if you have the space place in super pro box and let it do whst it do

The Skybox Pro 16s reaches about 16 inches above the rack bars it sits on. So if you measure the height of your Subaru, including the rack, and the height of your garage door, you have your answer. I have an Acura MDX which is probably taller than your Subaru, and I have plenty of clearance with the Skybox on.

On a 2007 Pilot, my skybox is set approx 35 inches apart. The skybox has a 24 inch adjustment rail that the hinges sit on. You can move them back and forth if your crossbars are wider apart.

I also just down loaded SkyPortal. I have an IPAD, but I will test it to see they work together.

Nothing from my research. Both appear to have the same features. Only notable differences would be aesthetics such as colors on the plastic

Yeah, they sent you the wrong item. This happened to me, too. Amazon screwed up the order, and instead of sending me a "Skylighter", they sent me a "Superdisc", which looks similar, but is smaller and has no light. I had to return it for a refund.

As far as I can tell, the only difference is that it's Red. I love mine. Ive had it for quite awhile now.Still same great big stereo sound in a nice little stereo box.

I'm looking to buy one. Such a good question but no one seems to know the answer. :(update: I think they are the same except one is more cheaply built. But which one?? Who knows...could be the higher priced one!

Yes, the RocketBox is adjustable and unlike the U rings found in others, this has a clamp system that better adjusts to more cross bars.

Absolutely. Uses the same speedring attachment as other alien bee lighting. This softbox is decently made, but be aware that there are two velcro straps that allow you to slide out two of the support legs when assembling and taking apart. I like the product
