I'm not going to advise you in what direction to take , but I did switch counts myself when I was in a similar situation as you ... about 9 months or a year in ... at that time , some great people from the forum were giving me great advice on a number of different things , so keep making friends .
and just to let you know , at first I was a little concerned I would not be good enough to go to keep up with level 2 system quickly, but I was wrong . I was just concerned because I had never tried.
Switching to a new count / even a level 2 count / was not as difficult as I had heard it to be from some books and writings...
(working through email with a few excellent mentors ) I did have issues with side-counts though, and after some time trying things/ I recognized that isn't my strong "suit" (pardon the pun) ,
so the fact was , I was probably not good enough to side count things while keeping a level 2 count . (at this time, maybe in the future)
"Know thy self" - everyone has strengths and weaknesses , what are YOU in particular , good at , what are you not-so-good at ? try all these things first , before you decide if you are "good at it"
I had issues with that , so to keep a strong count ,but understanding I wasn't strong with side-count , the best Idea ;
I went with a level 2 count with no-side counts /
of course you will make mistakes at first when you switch , but , just make them at home .
if you're smart enough to do a count correctly and do basic strat perfect-now , which it sounds like you are , then ; after a few weeks or a month, you will fly though a deck in 30 seconds no matter what you choose , maybe you are one of those guys that can handle all the side-counting and doing 3 or 4 or 5 different things in your head , and have no problem , even better !
if not , then just pick one and go with it like the guys here are saying , any count that wins you money is a "good enough" count... this is a long journey anyway , maybe even a lifelong quest ... so you have time to try things at home ... well, just my two cents ,
gotta go ...
... best of "luck"
