MMM V2 to V3 replacement plan still available?

[V0RT3X]

Comes with the revo I bought. I don't know the status since I haven't received it yet, just from pictures. I hope the package will await me when I get home next week.

I have 3 MMM's 2-V3 1-V2. Is they a way to tell which one is the V2? I can't remeber which one it is.

Keeping them all side by side on a flat surface, your V3s should be taller by a few mm.

and a V2 has bullets on the input side too.
although some or the really early V3's had this too.

Bumping this up with a question.

Does it still get replaced if it dies in snow?

[Arct1k]

If it dies for any reason..

I'm pretty sure I have a V2 as that had the main power leads soldered onto the board. If so, its still going strong though I really want a V6. Is there a tradeup offer?

V2s had the bullet connectors on the PCB and even some early V3s did as well. As for the V6, how do you plan on fitting one in your Savage? Joking aside, I don't think they have even released the V5 yet...

That's weird, I coulda swore it was V2's with the direct soldered connections, so it was V3's instead?

Yep, V3s got direct-soldered wires although early units did have bullet plugs on them. My first MMM was a V3 and it had bullet plugs, my 2nd had wires on it. When my MMM gets back from Castle it will be a V4 and have direct-soldered wires as well.

Correct. Any V1/V2 will be replaced by a current version for any reason at no charge indefinitely.

As long as we are in business, and make the MMM.

Can you tell apart V2 and V2 refurbs? Mine has no switch wires coming out and the power bullets have no solder on them.

Yes, we can tell the difference. Refurbs have a couple of circuit modifications, a specific serial number burned into the chips, a specific work order number on the ID tag, etc.

[V0RT3X]

Can I do that myself? I wouldn't want to ship it to you and then find out it's a refurb since I'm not from US and shipping might hurt a little.

Can someone tell me the exact height of the V3 case? (refurbs probably have V3 cases?)

[Thomas Porfert]

I don't know the height difference, but there is a way you can identify a V3 case. Look at the top of the controller, where the part of the case sticks out to cover the capacitors, between the power wires. If the cover over the caps is lower the the fan cover, then it is a V3 case; there is a small step down to the cap cover. If they are at the same level, then it is an older case.

I've attached a picture for easier comparison, I hope this helps!

Note: The V3 pictured is one of the original V3's, that didn't have the power wires soldered on the board.
