Three words for you: ebay.de and ends today!

Yes, I'm looking into the exact figures again since I've had many Q's about
it. They're expensive, but I can tell you this - I bought a few for one of
the two spare units I had (one belonging to Lasse on this list now) and
there is no way of telling which is the new knobs (apart from the fact that
the originals might have been scratched).

Lasse is your man, he's changed from 110 volts to 220...

electronically yours, jesper
