I was talking to someone Saturday about the different lengths on the J-teks we had seen. Oddly enough I just ran across a posting of part numbers and the lengths of the leads....

Quick way to tell is the J-tek has red heads, M-tek brown and larger in diameter head. Tim sells J-teks, but I'm not sure if he gets Ms, I didn't ask. Someone else can pipe up on this one...

I think Tim used to carry M's, but not anymore. I think I still have a few.

I use Ms for other stuff, I like the larger head and lower amp firing requirements.
