Does your Kessil A360we have the "e" printed on the light?

Maximus · 01/29/2014, 12:58 AM

I just noticed that my Kessil A360we doesn't have the "E" designation on the light. It does have the "E" sticker on the box though. I just wanted to make sure I had the "E" model and not the older one. Thanks.

Mine neither. It is on the boxes but i too was not able to find it on the light its self. With that said i do feel confident Kessil would not try to pwan the older unit off like that.. I would hope.

send it back til you get one with the "E" on it.Get what you paid for...not your fault that they might be pushing old models off on you...I wish business/society would get their act together...If there was a letter of your name missing or one number wrong on your tax return,,the IRS would make an issue out of it..

Was there any research done to note if the "E" is a common factory marking for that unit? I did not and own them, i bet the Op didn't either. WE should gather more info before going off in a rant!

No research done at all. I'm sure Kessil just got lazy and didn't bother to put the new designation on them, but it would be nice to know for sure. I suppose I could call them and ask.

Will do.

Just called them and they verified it is the "E" model. There are two ways you can physically verify it. The first way is to look at your power supply and if it says 19v, your good to go. The second way is the newer models have a one pin circular plug connection to the power supply where the older models have a two prong connection. Hth.

Thanks for getting back with the info. I have the "E" then .I was pretty sure kessil would not just rebag the old 360 with a new label. Thanks for taking the time and reporting back Maximus...
