What is the current thinking on what works better, electric vs. pneumatic TE compensation? I've got an S80 vario which can use either.

IIRC the S80 Manual states that if you have a good pneumatic system you may wish to use it. Read section 5.7.3.9 of the (current) manual. One nice thing about electronic is that you can tune it in flight. You do have to decide during the install because the lines are hooked up differently. If you don't mind the extra work try both and see which works better.
