Keep the cordless drill and rivet gun handy...

 

True1 getting phased out to be replaced by True1 TOP

 

"With the introduction of powerCON TRUE1 TOP, the existing TRUE1 cable connectors and chassis connectors will be discontinued."

Is backwards compatible with True1, but harder to misplug , better IP protection and changes to latch design.

We got a bag of over 100 shells foc from Neutrik not long after we purchased our outdoor led screen.

 

The latches parted company with the shells all to easily, so Neutrik replaces them. Thankfully using a reputable screen manufacturer made it easy as Neutrik could see they were genuine.

We received some new LED fixtures from what I would think of as a reputable manufacturer - not one of the big names, but not a random Chinese brand either. They were supplied with "Seetronic" branded True 1 connectors on the power leads, Neutrik connectors on the units themselves.

 

Not sure if it's just a way to save some cost, or if they are keen to avoid the issues that Neutrik have had.

It occurred to me today:  Is there a clumsier product name than "powerCON TRUE1 TOP"?  I can't think of one.

Well, from a marketing/advertising perspective, it's made you give it a mention on an esteemed and highly relevant public forum so not all bad then!
