What's the best plucker available?

Not including the commercial style drum poultry pluckers which one gets your vote?
Further, does anyone have experience with the Go Devil gas powered plucker?

What birds I do pluck is done by the best plucker in the world my boys lol .
it's all about doing them fresh and still kinda warm . Dip in super hot water for a few seconds don't gut before you pluck . My buddy has an old chicken plucker we use for birds .
they make one that you can hook to a drill do it out side .

180-200 degrees with a touch of Dawn to help it get down to the skin for up to a minute with the "done" indicator being when the large upper wing feathers pull easily. Makes a world of difference.

Hopefully we are still talking about duck plucking.
