I am liking the progress since I was last able to post!
LOL...Well Trav....the only progress we made was finding out we had the OLD style drivers...and getting that situation handled.....I expect after Tuesday (that is when the new ones arrive) We should start having some REAL progress I HOPE ANYHOW

Well good luck with it.. that's enough progress so far; I mean for the most part as this build has been going on things have been going quite smoothly until recently.. so I think that it's going really well minus a few bumps in the road!

It was for sure. They must have made the change to the 240's later down the road than the other models because guys have already been using the other models since earlier on in the year without any issue. Or at least none that was reported that I had seen.

Yeah the way Robert had explained it part of the initial delay was due to some change, but he was spouting off so much info, and trying to drive, and make deliveries and pick up streets is hard to take everything in......I had known they made changes to the 185's, but figured it would be done on all models at the same time.

They told me the change was made in JULY/11......and the initial shipping of the drivers with the changes was August 8, 2011

Yeah if I end up using Meanwell's I'm going to have to call before I purchase any and see if they're still making changes with the other models. I seen a few threads that were already using the 185's like back in the spring time.
