It sounds like snake oil to me. Stick with the reputable aftermarket companies.

I would never buy a product from Ebay... I would find out who makes the product and contact them directly by phone...

There is no warranty for the product from the vendor.

Must of the time they are charging high prices for something that is junk.

Just listen to AWray he's right on this one!

QUICKY: I had a friend buy a computer of Ebay and find out he been had for a junked DELL.

I've read into the "happi" box.
Usually you can do just the same when you use a shielded cable to replace the stock APPS signal from the ECM to the PCM. (Costs almost nothing)

Run an additional ground from the PCM directly to the negative battery post (PM me for more specifics), i had major issues w/ TC lock and un-lock, it hasn't happened one time in over 8 months...cost about $2.00

I just fixed a truck that the Happy Box hadn't made the customer too happy. I ended up cleaning the connections at the alternator and the torque convertor lock/unlock prob went away. It's been a week and it's ok so far.
