Yes, but it is a nasty practice. Because obviously if you are a new customer the sensors on their own are useless to you - i.e. you have to buy outdated parts which they otherwise wont sell. I understand they need to get rid of their stock, but why did they release the new ones in the first place? Wouldnt it be easier and seem "ok" to just sell the separate ones also as the old unit? It would look ok and they would even get rid of them quicker.

Maybe they're out of 31's, sending out 11's for now and are getting ready to upgrade to 35's. Wouldn't that be something!  \:D/

Also, how much do we think a newly released 35 would cost? Hopefully not an insane amount.

It would seem logical to me to brand both, 11 an 31, and sell the 31 for more. I'll bet most folks would buy the 11 anyway, as they wouldn't want to spend the extra money for the "marginally better 31" in their eyes. Present company excluded.

It does seem strange though that "AR" revisions being sold and Dated in June, when my "AS" revision is 01 Feb 16.

Same for me, mine is 02 Feb 16. Seems we're going backwards.

Well let me clarify... I probably should not say say "wrong" but rather sort of concerning...

Ryan, just curious; have you had anymore shipments with the "AR" revision or are we back to only "AS" with 31's?
