Do I trust the Label or Brick?

Taking a look at my 360 Elite at first I thought it was Zephyr.

It's dated April 28th, 2008 and the power on it reads 16.5A..althought when I look at the brick it should be 200+ W but it reads as 14.2A 175W.

So do I have a Zephyr or a Falcon?

Thanks!

seriously why does it matter, as long as it works it doesnt matter and if it breaks you just get it replaced raylewisnfl52

This is from an old thread I posted in:

"This is from a recent OXM article (Mar 09/Iss# 94).

Here's 4 ways to find a Jasper unit:

1.) Check the Lot Number: "On the right side of the box, look above the UPC bar code. If the Lot No. is 0844 or above, the odds are good that it's a Japser. The earliest documented Jaspers are from Lot No. 0843."

2.) Check the Build Date: "Peek in the cardboard cutout window on the top of the box. If the console was manufactured in November 2008 or later, you likely have a Jasper. It's possible to get an October-built Jasper, but November or later is a surer bet."

3.) Check the Power Brick: "Near the top of the sticker on the underside of the power brick. you'll see a listing for "Output DC". 203W indicates Xenon, 175W means Falcon and 150W signals Jasper. The 150W bricks fit only the Jaspers, so it's an excellent indicator, but of course you'd have to open the box the check for this."

4.) The Guaranteed Way: " You can also ignore everything above and go with the surefire method: Look in the cutout window on the top of the box. On the far-right edge (or left, if you've flipped the box around because you can't read upside-down) -- you may have to use your finger to, uh, make the window a little larger -- you'll see a line above the words "Made in China" that reads "12V -- xx,xA; 5V -- 1A". If the "xx,xA" is 12,1A, you're guaranteed a Jasper. If it's 14,2A, it's a Falcon. 16,5A is Xenon."
