While I can certainly understand your decision to buy an Oilamatic, the
$800+ difference in price will buy a lot of relays, hoses, and switches.
A pre-oiler is after all a non flight critical item, used before engine
start. If it fails, you're still on the ground. Like you, I remember
Oilamatic having a lower noncertified price when I checked them out
several years ago. 

My Glasair III (and I believe the Lancairs also) already uses an
electro-hydraulic gear pump that was designed for marine use, the
pre-oiler will just keep it company.
