Is anyone using the more current verisons of the NRG Quick Release.
Are any of the newer generations of QR more reliable/secure than the commonly seen 2.0 QR which i've read plenty of on these forums.
2.5, 2.8, 3.0 or 4.0 QR

or is the difference only the 'handle'.

Anyone have experience with the 'all-in-one" miata specific one ?

NRG Innovations Gen 2.5 Quick Release Kit for Mazda Miata

Thanks.

I had to look at my purchase history to find what I have on the race car. Apparently it's a Gen 2.5. I bought the SRK-160H and SRK-250BK separately on Amazon six years ago.

No complaints about the Gen 2.5, but I don't have anything to compare it to. Make sure to use Loctite on the fasteners, that was a scary moment.

I took out the set screw that is used to force you to press the tiny button before you can release the steering wheel. I found the extra step to be unnecessary. The handles on the 2.5 are sufficiently small that I have to completely re-position my hands to release the wheel. I think this is actually an advantage over larger handles.

It seems that the "all-in-one" kit you linked is merely the Miata-specific hub and a Gen 2.5 QR, sold together for a premium over buying them separately on Amazon. Current Amazon pricing: SRK-160H - $99, SRK-250BK - $116.
