Alife supports a higher wattage, I dont remember exactly how much more, and is much cheaper than ESU. The only downside is that they are not as easy to find. Both brands are equally durable and look very similar.

I fully recommend Alife over ESUs if you manage to find them.

Hope this helps.

I'm from america, and they are all over the place. I just bought mine an hour ago at LLLreptile. they are 1000watts and can hold 4 heating elements.

Oh, ok, thats good for you :). I have both units, and they perform identically. I havent had the need to use the extra wattage from Alife yet, but it is always good to know that it is there when I need it. They are harder to find here in Canada, most stores stock ESU.
