what's the difference between gold and silver/various 'bloom' numbers?

Hello, happy to help. I understand that the difference between gold and silver and platinum etc gelatin sheets are different strengths, so if you use platinum for instance, this will be stronger than all other named gelatin sheets so you would need less I suppose. The difference is setting power the higher the bloom rate the stronger the gelatin. So if you needed to use gelatin to make something quite firm, you could use more gelatin sheets of the lower bloom rate or less sheets of platinum. Here is a small indication for your assistance. Hope this helps you. Platinum sheet gelatin = 250 bloom Knox powdered gelatin = 225 bloom Gold sheet gelatin = 200 bloom Silver sheet gelatin = 160 bloom Bronze sheet gelatin = 140 bloom

Since I don't have the SCD-2100 (silver), I can't really say. I suspect there is no significant difference other than the color.

The Platinum edition lists as being 0.5 lbs heavier than the Silver, despite having the exact same features. Additionally, the a slightly more gun metal, or anodized color tone, seeming just a bit sepia-like. The Silver is a much cleaner looking silver color. Both have a deep matte finish. You can compare them at their amazon page: Blue Microphones Yeti USB Microphone - PlatinumJust use the color selection tool right below the list price to see the very subtle difference.

80 PLUS Platinum is only 2% more efficient at 50% load over Gold. Gold being 90% efficient, and Platinum sitting at 92%. Gold is fine for all situations I can think of. Platinum is reserved for all but the most enthusiast of rigs, and those who are willing to pay top dollar for peace of mind for their expensive components.

I'm not sure about the gold version... but the standard 3m privacy screen only darkens the screen some. There is no color shift.

Yes, and it does say Silver. It's under Product Information. You can use ctrl+f to search for things on a webpage, like 'color'.

There are absolutely no difference. The silver has customize-able faceplates and apparently the 84-plus doesn't. I believe that isn't what you are buying your calculator for. That didn't at all play a factor in which calculator I chose, because I am buying it for the performance not the beauty. Also the silver has more ram/rom 1.5mb vs the 84 plus 480kb. I won't be saving things on my calculator, and either way I clear my RAM ALL THE TIME, so that didn't play a factor neither. Aside this, there is nothing is, they perform and get the same tasks done . Hope I helped.

They can be ordered 25th or 50th. 25th will have silver accents and the 50th has gold accents. If you search you will see both are available

I personally don't see much of a difference, one may be a shade darker then the other. I had purchased the gold socks.

No silver. There was an equal number of each kind of color. The pic represents te colors well.

They all provide plenty of shine. The difference is that one is more coarse, one is fine, and one leaves a protective coating on the silver to delay tarnish. Go to their website and check it out. I agree with Phoebe about Tarn-X, she describes it aptly. I prefer the Hagerty's with the silver label. It's the same as in the blue jar but protects longer.

No, they are not the same as the "Gold", these are the old versions, though I don't feel any difference after I used both.

The gold ball is larger than the silver ball and it is also a bit softer. The gold ball makes for a less-intense routine.

I have silver and am very impressed with it, there was little difference in price when I purchased it. I could find no difference in the specs, so it must be the law of supply and demand.

No. However, the gold color is closer to being silver, and that's as close to gray as you will get with this line of tablets.
