That's correct, my bad. And you may be right about that it may take longer to heat them up. I see mixed reviews about them some claim they're on par with RE71Rs and some say they're not. They're not currently offered in 20" sizes so it won't be possible to compare them against to OEM G3s :/

Cem, where did you see them in $300 range?
I was referring to the 19" sizes, see post 212
