Electric versus manual waste valves

I've considered switching to electric dump valves on the gray and black water tanks. The first valve I want to replace is on the kitchen tank, the one where they have the tee handle mounted behind the tires!
Has anyone seen or used this type before? Are they reliable?

Our friend installed them on her park model as it was nearly impossible to reach the T handles. For her they work well.

Let's see...$118 each X 3 (grey, black, & galley)??? Nah, I'll be a cheapskate and pull the handles.

Thanks for the feed back. If the latest repair doesnt hold up I might try one.
Lasater, your right they are expensive.
