Re: NEW TRUSPEED LASER is OUT! WARNING! Also some thoughts. I've been able to confirm that the AL G8 present at CFL#6 is a 17.01A firmware revision.
This revision utilizes the same programming codes as the 8.3/10.1 - non-"100 PPS UL enabled" LPP (current LPPs sold in the North-American market are either badged "100 PPS UL-enabled" or, alternatively, are called "CAN/AU" models, to denote the same ability to "handle" the 100 PPS UL).
Historically, the 17.01 variant of the AL G8 is the very model which is rumored, in the community, to be the basis of the LPP, and this rumor further corresponds, again historically, with the split between AL and LPP.
I am currently trying to confirm the difference between the CAN-AU/100 PPS UL enabled 8.3/10.1 revision of the LPP, versus the pre- CAN/AU/100 PPS UL update model.
-----
Currently, I suspect that there is absolutely no difference between the two, aside from the ability of the former to properly jam the 100 PPS UL.
The reason for this is because if you will all recall, the 100 PPS UL algorithm was originally divorced from certain subsets of LPPs, due to, at the time, fear of tripping the Jenoptik LaserPatrol's jam-codes, which also operates at this pulse-rate.
This is also the reason why upon encountering a 100 PPS UL, the CAN/AU-box LPP will sound a different alert, which is designed with the above Jenoptik in-mind, so that users of the LPP in those affected markets can quickly disengage their LPP after taking proper remedial action, so as to hopefully not run afoul of the Jenoptik's jam-code.
My feelings here, though, are purely speculative, for the time-being, and will need to await further confirmation.
