Title: Difference between Originative regular springs vs. "limited" springs
Post by: brownhead on Mon, 25 November 2013, 23:06:21
I wanted to figure out the difference between Originative regular springs vs. "limited" springs, and couldn't find the answer anywhere, so I contacted Originative's support. This is their exact reply (minus salutations).

The 62g Limited has a little more elasticity to it.

Given that this is true, I think this would mean that the limited versions feel a little firmer and will last a little longer. Could anybody who has both limited and regular springs weigh in here?

I read somewhere that the limited springs are selected to have a bit less variation than normal, is this true?

I'm not sure about the normal 62g but I just tried limited 62g.
I even wrote a short review about it.

This is the idea, yeah.

I asked sherry the same question.

Sherry said the same thing. There is less variation between each spring.

Yeah...whatever the case, the difference is only $2 - so why not?
