I’m looking for a new rest for a V3 31 that I have coming in. I’ve read that there are some fitting issues with some of the standard rests. Which rest does everyone recommend that is both reliable and fits the V3 the best?

I've ran the Integrate rest from mathews since i bought the bow and it's been great. Zero issue. I've had the bow now for just about 7 months and i shoot a few times a week.
I’m a fan of the Hamskea Trinity on my V3 for 3 reasons.
1.) The rest is 100% quality. You can literally pick it up and notice a difference as compared to other rests.
2.) Micro adjustments for everything. No more loosening a bolt and then “whoops bumped it 1/4””
3.). Their customer support- Had a head scratcher, emailed and posted here. Within hours I had a response and it wasn’t a political, or flip the box over and read response. It was an answer from someone who had a working knowledge of their products and legitimately knew what to do.
So unless that trinity starts needing food or water it’s going to stay.
I've heard nothing but raving over the Hamskea rests, but it feels like the QAD has a lock on the integrate rest setup, which is commonly used and seems to make sense with the new roller guard. Now with the new quivers, it's even more important to use an integrate rest. I'm hoping to see Hamskea come out with something that will be more like an integrate rest setup, and until that happens, I think most people are going to still choose QAD.
I've had the QAD on mine since i bought it but always have been interested in the Hamskea just because of the hype. But i've also had no reason to get rid of the QAD. Its been completely reliable the entire time.
Sorry but QAD integrate is substandard. Lots of failure and mechanical issues attached to that brand. Integrate attachment isn't meaningful enough for me to put a substandard rest on my V3X 33 just because of it.
In fact, I have a Trinity mounted to it now - works great. But Hamskea is coming out with something that fits the integrate platform (without actually qualifying as an "integrate" rest) and I may pick that up when available - we'll see on Wednesday.
How many rests have you had to have multiple failures? What kind of mechanical issues? Only thing I've heard is they sometimes freeze in cold but QAD supposedly sends you a new one prontomente.
