All of the Banebot RS775 motors we have (both existing ones from 2011 and the recently arrived ones from 2012, including both case-shorted and non case-shorted motors from both years), look completely identical. They both even have exactly the same writing printed on them:
Quote:
RS775WC-8514
DC18V/CCW
in the exact same location on the flux ring.

The only difference is the 2011 motors were shipped with an orange Banebots sticker on them.

Edit: If Banebots did supposedly switch to a new supplier, I'm wondering if these are the remainder of old motors from last year they had in stock?
