Re: Gecko question

Dale,

Good evening! There really is no G201A. All the 10 microstep units
are called G201. They are the latest version (Rev-4) so they have
current reduction, etc. These are supported and warranteed.

The "discounted" versions are new/unused units from the original
production run (Rev-1) and are conspicuous by their total absence of
a cover. They have no support or warranty.
