You are correct. However I had further concerns that didn't elucidate. Getting the DIY crowd to agree on a part choice is difficult. The disparity between these pots is worse than the Bourns vs Alpha argument that is still going on. I have some EMS Spares that I am using by Helipot and Beckman (I think). What is the next guy going to use? How do we accomodate everybody ?

You are still correct though,
