Do I need to upgrade my V1 to include POP? I am in SC.

I did not upgrade/update to get pop, but I wanted to the temperature sensor technology and just confidence that the unit I had owned for 6 years would be as good as new again.Originally Posted by timmyjane
I cannon comment on the POP/POP2 in SC - I just felt it was worth the upgrade for the above mentioned thoughts.
The upgrade is probably more influenced by things other than POP, like the temp compensation is a big deal (tm). If it's been a long time since VR has looked at your unit, it can probably benefit from a checkup.
would it be an all new unit or just a FW update and calibration? how long does VR take to return?
It's at least a FW update and calibration. If they find anything else out of condition they might replace it too. Don't be surprised if they give you a shiny scratch-free new case or lens covers.Originally Posted by timmyjane
I did not get any and I was hoping for some tooOriginally Posted by jdong
I believe you will also need to have an intact serial number on your current unit and will most likely get a new Serial Number to help track your updated status of HW/FW.
I know mine changed, but I got what I believe to be an overhaul from my older unit
I sent my V1 in some time ago just to see if it was out of tune.
I asked VR how much it would be to replace the lenses due to some minor scracthes. I was told it would cost $30 for cosmetic changes. Of course I didnt go for that.
Unless it's horrible I wouldn't pay $30 for it either.Originally Posted by CactusMan
No just tiny scratches, barely visible.Originally Posted by Beatlesfan
Yeah, you're good then. My 1.7, before I upgraded, had some pretty bad scratches on it and it's range was mind blowing.Originally Posted by CactusMan
