Man I hope that's not what they are putting on the mill I should be receiving next week. When I asked about the vfd problem, Khai told me they had sold hundreds of mills so far and in a few isolated cases, there was a problem with the VFD's early last year but the supplier had the problem corrected with the later v2 control boards.
