As far as how they compare....
The best way is to compare the design. The aussies, and other lunch box style lockers, such as the lock-right do not replace the carriers, and just repalce the spider and side gears and do not require re-setting up the ring and pinion
A full selectable locker such as the rubicons, the ARB's, Ox lockers etc.. replace the carrier and would require re-setting up the ring and pinion when being installed.
The full locker will be much stronger than a lunch box style locker

Below is a comparison of the open carrier (left) and the Trac-Lok (right). The guts of the Trac-Lok are the clutch packs that sit outboard of the spider gears (green arrow). When both tires are turning at the same speed, the spider gears will be stationary relative to the carrier. When the two tires spin at different speeds, the spider gears will spin relative to the carrier. The clutch packs in a Trac-Lok resist that spinning, attemping to tie the spider gears and the carrier together and thereby keep both tires turning at the same speed. When the clutch packs wear out, your Trac-Lok is reduced to being just an open carrier again.
