Stupid Dynafit Powerinsert

Hi,
So I've had a Dynafit beast 14 on my Qst 106 for a while but am looking to get a second ski with an Shift MNC, cast touring Look pivot, or just a regular alpine binding (MNC or ID since I have touring boots).
My question is do those bindings work with the dynafit power insert still attached? Otherwise I'm basically limited to either getting rid of the beast 14, buying another, or removing the power insert each time I switch skis. Anyone have experience with this problem?
Thanks,
David

Yeah I always though it was kind of dumb way to get around Te issue. But I do not know for sure the answer but sadly I would guess that I would impede the heel action of a regular style binding. Seeing how the heel piece would clamp the beast insert rather then the heel lug it may not function as intended but I have no personally tried it or mounted for any one doing it.

A beast heel insert pretty much makes a boot incompatible with any non Pin tech heel.

So wont work with: King Pin, Shift, Tecton, new Marker binding, any alpine binding.

One of the many reasons the Beast was a dumb binding and has died out almost completely.
