don't worry about it, the zenon's death cert is much more important then the birth sheet.... :P :o

The amps were bench tested in the US...

pretty sure this batch was benched in the east. either way , I would not worry too much about rated power.

It's not about the numbers, it's about the way it sounds.

I know that 99% of all xenon's produce well over rated power......
I have a 600.1 that benched at 820 and a 200.4 that benched at close to 900.

the xenons's were batch tested in korea, (printed out birthsheet) and later individually tested by pg, in Portland Oregon. i'm not sure what p37 means, but it was written by a American. probably to mess with you. (one of my 100.2 birthsheets does that too?)

That's right, I should have elaborated.

The printed sheet comes from the factory. If you have a handwritten birthsheet it has gone through PG's QC and has been bench tested in the US! So if you have one of these birthsheets you are probably not likely to have any of the cold solder issues.

P37... leave it to the good ol US education system :lol:

I believe the "P" in question is really a 9. I know this was an issue with someone else.

Yeah my Birthsheet is hand written so thats great news so atleast i know i'm not gonna have any cold solder issues and i can look forward to long happy relationship with my PG200.4 :hurr:

But still rather peculiar why they would write a P and its nowhere close to looking like a 9

I don't think there is any way to know that you didn't have a cold solder issue, more like a hope or prayer....

Hmmm :hmm: :hmm:

I have always thought opposite you guys. The handwritten ones came from the manufacturer's factory, but the ones with printed graphs were the ones that came from PG after QC testing.

could P's and 9's be exchagable in asia? I would understand that more then some schmo in the us doing it.

Yeah, you're right, P's and 9's are exchangeable in Asia. :roll:

Your broken record comments against asians are twice as ignorant as the american who writes 9's backwards.

dude calm the hell down :? . What other comments have I made about asians writting to be "broken record"? It was not any kind of sideways racist comment or anything it was just a comment that I have NEVER heard of 9's and P's being exchanged anywhere in the US as appearently no one else has. I am not familiar with asian writting or customs so it was a question as to if is something that happens there? I thought maybe someone on here might have more experience then me so i asked........

No matter how many times I explain my position to you guys turn it around that I am redneck KKK member from NAM. How about you add redneck to my title, redneck-golden-eared floor sweeping hack since you guys can't give it a rest.

and you say I post-jack? All I do is say hello or ask a simple question and I am accused of something........

But seriously, could it be possible they did it in asia and not the US?

I saw a guy on the bus with a forked thumb about one year ago. It was strange.

When I was growing up, one of the local farmers was completely missing a thumb. He had lost it in a farming accident when he was young.

Thing is, I had never noticed it. One day for some reason or other he shook my hand, I don't remember the exact circumstances. I just remember how odd it felt to shake someone's hand when they were missing a thumb. Add to that the fact that I had known this guy for years, and never noticed the missing thumb. I knew when he shook my hand it felt weird, I just couldn't quite figure out why, until I looked down and noticed his thumb was missing.

Strange experience...
