It seems such a shame to get rid of all that hardware when only part of it is bad. Many electronically-inclined individuals would be more than happy to do a little modding to get the broken ones to work. In my case, it's not about saving money, it's more about reducing waste.

I am with you on that. No reason a distinguishing mark or other couldn't be used to identify the V1 failures.
Your right, they are still good ESC's and I would have no problem owning one.
