Finally got my module today and connected it without delay
I won't get into all the details as VR has pretty much covered it in his review (see this post for details) but I can happily say that it works exactly as described and demonstrated in the videos.
I can also confirm that the 3 different suspension settings (comfort, sport and raised) are retained, they are just all now lower by the number of millimeters you lower your car by.
I used the module to lowered my car by 40mm (a bit much I know and may raise it up a bit in future).
Here are a few photos of the different settings (sorry I didn't take any before photos).
Comfort:
This is what I will be driving on most of the time and we can think of it as the control setting compared to other modes.
Sport:
This lowers the car by approximately 10mm compared to Comfort. It's nice for photo shoots or hard parking etc. but a bit too stiff for driving.
Raised:
This raises the car by about 25mm compared to Comfort, which means on this setting, the car will be sitting very close to the same height as the factory Sport setting (maybe 5mm lower). So this can be used to return the car to almost (can be exactly factory if you only lower your car by 25mm) factory height with a press of a button without needing to connect the module and reconfigure.

Thank you so much for the update.
I'm 100% convinced... except for the 40€ of shipping costs (I'm in Germany) of a plastic thing which weighs 30g...

Thats impressive and thank you for your detailed review. I am seriously tempted to give this a go now because I hate how my car sits when on comfort, it makes the 18” wheels look tiny!
Speaking of wheels, what size are your AMG wheels there mate?
I just received my module 2 hrs ago. I'm in Canada. My unit was shipped from Canada. I have a 2014 e550 4matic sedan. I lowered it 30mm front and 35 rear. Works like a charm. There was absolutely no issues for me. I followed all the instructions, first tried low mode, than decided to lower the back a little bit more in custom settings. My rear end was very high on factory settings. Anyways for all interested - works like a charm.. I might make the front -27mm to make it more in-line with the rear. I drove the car around and all seems well.

Mine are 18 inch too and I agree they're too small for this car. I'm currently looking for a set of 20" Niche Form wheels in gold: Auto generated image, not an actual car
Technically, 10 people could spend like $45 each to buy only one and mail it to each other after they're done with it. You don't have to keep it installed after you've changed the setting right?

I think you do though? I think it changes if you accidentally hit the raise button
