This unboxing thread chronicled v2 from Aisler sponsor: three photos—fresh green board labeled "British Heritage, Dutch Vision, German Manufacture," HAT pins/M.2/swirling logo silkscreen; close-up heatsink/fan headers (doubled for GPU cooling); full assembly with CM5 slotted, USB-C powered, PCIe riser ready. Highlights: permaproto hack area, copper-etched logo, stable boot. "Twice as many fan headers... seem to be alive!"—fixes trace routing for signal integrity, production prep after v1 learnings.
