The all new MK4 version. The MK3 has the added function of the LED power indicator. This alone serves as two functions.

The MK4 power LED will dissipate any reaming charge left in the unit within a few seconds making sure your unit is powered down and drained.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Mega MK4 has four capacitors with virtually 20,000uf which ensures fast responsive action when switch four or more points at any one time.
