I have a unused original 005 in HA- Natural PM me if interested..
You do realize there are two differnt versions right? The V1 had six descrete levels set by sense resistors and was avaialble in two max outputs. The second one used a microprocessor and you could change each level.
The second one was more expensive, but the first one was a simpler design that had no drain when off but if you got the 1000mA version it could theoretically overheat if you left it on max to long. There was a ~700mA version of the V1.

How does one tell which is which? By serial number? If so where is the break from one version to the next?
It is my understanding that the lower level was set at 600ma. This is a direct quote from Data from the original sales thread:
"For the lights set at 600mA all the power levels are just a little over half of the above levels."
These are incredible lights. For any who may be considering one, they are well worth the price. Good luck on your search Hamheart!
(P.S. I have already sold the one I offered here. :mecry

The first batch had 100 units. As far as I know, the lights were numbered sequentially. I got numbers 19, 79, and 90 from the first batch. The one I got from the second batch with the Seoul emitter and updated driver has a serial number of 127.

Thanks LouRoy. Good to know.
The second batch was also available in Stainless Steel or Titanium head and switch and also some Damascus head units. I got a SS the second time around. I can't remember if Al heads were in the second batch or not.
I forgot to mention the first batch were Lux III emitters.
The serial numbers won't tell you much, lots of folks had the internals upgraded on the 1st gen units. (emitters and circuit board)
