That almost makes it sound like there's no reason to use a Spike. However, Spikes are "more flexible" in a different way -- Victors don't have two independent outputs. If what you need is on/off control, you can do it with half as much weight using a Spike than you can with Victors. A Spike also costs less and is not as prone to frying when accidentally abused.
