Different Core Types
Posted: Thu Aug 06, 2020 12:18 pm
Can someone please help me with the different revo extreme (metal) core types/materials?
From my understanding there are the following:
1. V1 nickel-plated brass (i.e., original shiny silver core).
2. V1 unplated brass.
3. V3 stainless steel body and brass maze (i.e., new default, duller silver color core).
Are there any other variations? I'm not sure what the difference is between V1 and V2 (think V2 was just an update to the two pins and the sleeve without the grooves1). If you can post pictures that would be great.
With respect to the sleeves those have always been anodized aluminum. I know those have had other variations as well (e.g., aluminum not anodized, bead blasted, different anodizers, marbles version of GM-different shade, etc.) but those seem to have dozens of variations and spin-offs.
