Should I get a V1 or a V2 for a V700?

Definitely the V2 if you want to be able to use regular K-cups with your V700 machine. The difference between the V1 and V2 is that the V2 gives you the option of using regular K-cups as well as being able to use your own ground coffee. With the V1 you can only use your own ground coffee but not regular K-cups. I've used my V2 often with the K-cups and it works beautifully.

you can use the k cups in the v1 as well. you just remove the top as they show, put in the k cup, and brew. i have the v1, works good and is less expensive

Definitely get a V2. They do the same thing, however, the V2 has a finer screen and the k-cup attachment.

Either would work. I chose the V2 for my V700. By being able to brew K cups, I now have a wider variety of flavors I can brew.

Definitely the V2. It has the ability to let you use K Cups with the Vue. I have had mine now about a month, and it is wonderful. I now have so many more flavors and blends to choose from, and I can still use the great Vue packs for lattes and iced drinks as well.

I thinks there are some semantics reference the voltage. The NP-FV70's that I have been using now for almost a year are working perfectly fine. I have had absolutely no problem with the, and I am very pleased with them.

That's what is pictured. The v3 is a significant downgrade. The v3 has no speed indication lights (100/1000) and no mounting holes. Much better to buy a used v2 instead.

Hmmm, the primary "problems" (disconnection/reliability) with the v1 were almost certainly traced back to the overheating problems as far as I understand. So the real hope is that the v2 would address that design problem (aside from the cost-reduction angle, that is) with possible heat-sink or ventilation improvements. Or so I am hoping.Either ways, Dogma512 and Tusker, thanks for your note and would appreciate your comments on how you are finding the v1 units. How are they doing, especially on the reliability front ?

Specification wise; they are Identical. I can't find a schematic of the two but I suspect some parts are different.The main difference is the case. The V2 has no case and is much more susceptible to damage. If that doesn't matter to you, go for the V2

I just opened the box and saw that it's a V1. I fully expected that the V1 stock had run out from Netgear by now and they would be refurbishing V2's only. But this DealFisher must still have some old V1's to move out. So it is luck of the draw. I'm debating about keeping since that price is so low compared to new V2. And eventually, I'll upgrade one of these to a Nighthawk R6 or something that really has lot more power. It's only the farthest corner of my house that could use the Beamforming benefit. Also, I have no need of the USB 3.0 since I don't attach a hard drive or printer to these routers. I just opened the box and saw that it's a V1.

It is my understanding that version 2 is full of bugs still that needs to be worked out and the only place where you could download it is in Japan. So until they work out all the kinks with V2 I'd stay with the original version. If and when it's offered here in the US would be the only time it's safe and worthwhile to install.

Yes, it will be fine. I have been using the 7.4 and 7.2 interchangably for a couple of months. I do not see any difference in the two at all. Hope this helps.

V1 had a TN screen the V2 has an IPS screen. Better viewing angles. That's the primary difference I believe.

Yes they should be the same pen unless you have a refreshed model, but as I recall the didn't refresh the 700 series.

it all depends on your device and what it needs to charge. If you don't have anything that requires 2.1A and is fine with 1A, then you are fine with the 1A

I have the 5100 and the sb700. To be honest, the Cactus V4s seem to work better with my cheapie yongnuos than the 700. They work, but reliability is not great.

Hi Simon, sorry I don't own the V770 so I wouldn't know. Don't want to provide wrong info. Thks.

> If you buy new, you should get a Version 2Not the case; it's completely unpredictable unless you find a vendor willing to check for you and ship a specific unit. I heard from one seller, through whom I've been watching for a v2 shipment from SanDisk, that the last batch they received were actually all older units (they could tell from the package design). Seems like the old stock is being unloaded now that the e200 series has been discontinued. So if the version makes a difference for your purposes, contact vendors and find someone willing to check for you. One advantage of refurbs is that it's less likely they'll have to cut open a factory package to do this. > If you buy new, you should get a Version 2Not the case; it's completely unpredictable unless you find a vendor willing to check for you and ship a specific unit.

The one I had shipped to me on Nov. 19 was indeed a V2 model. The box did not have V2 sticker on it, and the description here doesn't say V2 (as opposed to elsewhere here on Amazon where it does say V2 - with the price being somewhat higher). But when I plugged it in and looked at the settings on the web interface, it was indeed a V2. I still had to update the camera and system firmware (the latest versions are about 6 weeks old or so), but it was a V2 camera. I'm not sure if that was just serendipity, or if they have run out of V1 stock and just defaulted to V2.

Per the professional reviews, the V750 also comes with upgraded software. The V700 includes Silverfast SE whereas the V750 includes the upgraded Silverfast Ai and also includes Monoco EZ Colour management solution. One reviewer concluded the real value in purchasing the V750 is in the improved software.

The v1 uses a tft display and the vs2 uses an is display. Get the v2. The tft display colors appear washed out when viewing at angles other than 90 degrees.
