I was comparing the 18 Gekkabijin MX LT1000S-P to the 19 Ballistic FW LT 1000S-P last night and they are fairly similar reels. Here are the differences that I found.
-Price, the Ballistic costs about $100 more
-Weight, the Ballistic is 30 grams lighter
-Construction, the Ballistic is not mag sealed like the Gekkabijin is

Other than that, there may be some slight differences, but I can not tell.

It sounds like a good 1000 series mag sealed reel. I am debating the these two to be paired with a SUL, so I will likely go with the Ballistic.
