Still using my 3.826 and has no plans to upgrade it. If ain't broke, don't fix it or upgrade it.

VR has told us over and over again that there is no performance difference unless your unit is out of tune.

What makes it so much better? Weird that they would make revisions and it would get worse. You would think that it would either be the same or improve.

With all these revisions, I'm surprised VR doesnt have like a changelog or something to state what was changed regardless if it was something very very minor like changing the LED to a different one.

My 3.826 has been pretty reliable. I probably should send it in for a tuneup but I don't want to be left without it. No ghosting, no temp failures... just great performance.

The V1 is still going through its growing pains with its new "internal organs" and I'm sure the gang at VR is hard at work at it. People need to just have patience and stop going awry everytime a new version is out. Take their word when they state their are no performance upgrades in these revisions.

My 3.81X (can't remember last digit, although I still have serial #) was the best I ever had. My 3.826 was a real let down in comparison. My latest 3.872 seems to be better than my 3.826, but maybe I just had a below average example of 3.826 -- who knows.

I had 3.863 and it ghosted. I sent it in and complained and got back 3.864, so far no ghosting.
