I have seen some Elites with LOT 846x. They are 14.2V though! It is difficult trying to find a Jasper Elite. If they had been Arcades, they would have had the Jasper internals. They are the best LOT numbers I have seen though.
Where did you see these?
Is it easy to see the amp rating on the UK elite boxes?
846 is mid November. Could be a long wait for elites but pros must be pretty close in the UK now.
The 846x FDOU Elites can be found at various Asda stores. They don't have any good bundles. Actually, they don't have ANY bundles, so I have been hoping that Game would get them in soon as they have a 1yr guarantee and will swap it n-store if anything goes wrong. They also have some good bundles. Some of the Asda stores that I checked only have LOT numbers around the 830s, so keep your eye out.
@kpatm:
If I come across a Jasper i would be happy to buy it and you could get it from me. Keep your eye out though as the Asda stores near you are worth checking. Could you stomach a trip down to England? Seen some 842x Arcades in my local Gamestation. Be warned though, their returns policy is pants when compared to their sister company Game. They require you to take the box in and they will ship it to Microsoft. Which is a real shame as I like the staff in my local Gamestation, they seem to have more gaming knowledge and a genuine interest in the games. I have not held out this long for a Jasper only to ship it back to Microsoft and have them send me a refurbed Falcon.
Not tried the blockbuster near me as they don't do Elites (can't find any Elites on their website). If you look for some of my previous posts you will see the stores that I have been checking and the issues that I have had while trying to get the LOT numbers.
I nearly dropped to the floor when I saw the Elite 846x. Once theat magical "x" appeared on the Arcades it was not too long before Jasper showed up. No idea what the "x" signifies, but I feel encouraged by it.
Also, it may be worth noting that another number on the Arcades changed, and this could be another method of identification. I can't remember what we are calling it, but I have mentioned it in previous posts (see the one where I mention the B4J code).
Happy hunting people, I'll keep you posted if I find anything else, and feel free to leave a message on this board or pm me here or my gamertag(peachy001) if you come across something.
