Taiwanese BB or Eddystone BB?

[Burstbucker]

Small Bear Electronics offers both the Taiwanese BB and the Eddystone BB, they're both the same price but I think the Eddystone is just a hair bigger.

Is there any difference between these two boxes, quality-wise?

I was wondering the same thing...

The Taiwanese B box has a much higher quality appearance.  I haven't seen the BB, but I would assume it is the same.  People have complained about the screws not fitting correctly though.  The Eddystone BB's that I have are pretty rough around the edges where the baseplate comes together.  I don't know how they compare in terms of weight.

Also, the corners are more rounded on the Taiwanese, which I prefer.

I'd email Steve beforehand about the BB.  I got one from him a few weeks ago and the screw heads do not fit into the baseplate.  He acknowledged the problem and contacted New Sensor.  Not sure what happened after that, tho.  I think I'll email him as well come to think of it.
