These past few days/weeks, there has been discussion about repairing/re-engineering the Leviton/HAI OMNI product line. This got me to thinking. (...I KNOW THAT'S DANGEROUS...)
HAI had 3 different versions of the OMNI board:
- OmniPro II. The full size, big brother. My best estimate here is there were 3 different versions.
- Omni II and Omni IIe. The little brother. At least 2 versions.
- LT. First the half size board. Then the full size LTe. One version.
(Note: I am not including the very original OMNI board from the 1990s.)
So by my estimate, this would be 6 or more versions all using the same footprint and basic design.
So my question is do we try to repair/re-engineer all 6+ versions? Or just look at one version?
Based on my knowledge and experience, the big brother (OP2) could be used as a replacement for the OMNI IIe or OMNI LTe.
So my suggestion would be to consider only the latest OP2, aka, the Big Brother.
Any thoughts?
