The range jumpers are identical in the V4 and the V5. Check out the PDF for the V5. It states under the pictures that the contacts are the same.

great, thanks Dave!

I will soon push S06J diode to 1W and see how long it makes it. Will let you all know.

best regards.

Hi. Milos

The difference between v4 and v5 is "reverse voltage protection" AFAIK.

thank you shin.

i am aware of this, but wasn't sure if there are more differences. I know size is definitely another big difference.

peace

ok, maybe its V3 then. Here is a photo. I don't remember the specs of this driver. I think it had two options for current settings, but i don't recall what they were. Any input would be great.

thanks

Hey I have one of those, and I was wondering the same thing!
Googling "flexdrive v3" revealed this which seems to contain the answer.

I don't really see a need for it, since the info flows through the V4 info to get to the V3 info.

However, you can edit your own subject/title lines, whenever you desire, by clicking on "edit" and then clicking on the "go advanced" button in the edit window. That will give you access to your subject line.

Peace,
