Would you/Do you use an Algae Turf Scrubber?

Would like to see what you have in mind though.

I'm trying to design one that uses a relatively small space. I guess it depends on the scale you're working with. Once you get into a larger tank with a stand and a sump, the scrubber can be fairly small in relation to the other filtration components. I'm running a very ghetto DIY one on my 120gal tank and it takes up a bunch of space under the tank but it could be shrunk a looong way. Like 18"x12"x6" with just an input and an output and a power cord without too much trouble, much smaller for a smaller tank.
