Really on the fence with these. Every ADV rider goes down occasionally, where's the line where the algorithm decides you need the airbag or you don't? I've had higher speed crashes and dusted myself off and walked away, but that 10 mph low side might just drop you on a rock ledge and break a rib or two. No matter how good the algorithm is, it cannot know what you're about to land on. But if the thing went off every time you come off the bike, that would get unnecessarily expensive. On the other hand, something like the Leatt Moto 6.5 worn under an armored Klim jacket is always active and costs you nothing when you fall, but it's hard to know how it really compares in terms of protection. And of course that option offers no support for your neck. Tough call...
I have got the Alpinestars tech air 5 (much more coverage than the klim), but it gets hot when you are off road in the summer. As you said , the downside is that you have to send it off.
