Anyone know what the story is with the "SO17XB"?

Is it the "old style" reflector with the full skirt?

I believe that the differences in the IMS reflectors are that one model is made for use with stars while the other is for use with bare emitters.

So if I"m looking for a reflector to use with my bare emitter, I'm looking for an SO??XB? As I currently am looking to buy some reflectors this is good to note.

MrMizmu,

No, the best reflector for the emitter is the SO17XA, the B version has shorter legs which sit on the top of the star board. And if you want to use the SO17XA on a star, you just need to trim the legs a bit.
