Version 3 - 12mm X 13mm
Version 4 - 9mm X 12mm
Version 5 - Don't know yet, but hopefully the same as version 4...

That's good news! I got your notice that my order is shipping too!

Hey I am looking at the V5 pdf documentation on your site and can't really see what is different than the V4...

Is it just the reverse polarity protection?

Yes, it's basically just the reverse polarity protection. I also tweaked a few other things like the ranges a little but nothing major. For example to reach the common request of 115mA now it's no longer necessary to remove the end range resistor.
