    I noticed in the latest batch of dimmer modules that they have changed..
    New screw terminals White case... I also noticed that they are hardware MOD 1 now and the circuit boards have changes (from what I could see through the vents). When connected to the cbus network they report the same firmware revisions as the the MOD 0 model.

    What has changed in MOD 1. Was it only the screw terminals ?

    You have seen that the case is different (its now a single item instead of 2 or 3 items conencted together). The new case required the use of new terminals. These terminals are also generally better accepted as easier to use. The terminals are not a drop in replacement onto the PCB, so... the PCB had to be modified to suit the new terminals. Funcationally there is no change.

    Just confirming that the only change is to the PCB to accept the new terminals, no other changes made.
