    Sorry, these are hp101. I did plan on new tube upgrades but went with a model 20 times the price. If only it was 20 times the performance!

    Yes it's stock, it is pointless to buy this without upgrading the tube inside.

    That's a crazy Amazon price and had no idea as I paid $105 each unit. Well guess I may as well gift these to some family members as these are worth less than toilet paper.
