Blowtie 1 or 2?

[lumpher]

I'm going to order 2 Blowties. For pressure fermenting and closed transfers, which 1 do you like better as-is and unmodified? I know the v1 has a better gauge, v2 has a new toy or 2, etc, but if you didn't have any and were going to order 2, would it be 2 v1, 2 v2, or 1 and 1?

My own reasoning in choosing the bowtie 1 was that I could more easily swap out the gauge or reconfigure the bits... I never felt a need to though and it's been working fine for what I use it for, but I have considered swapping the gauge out for the digital one. Jus wondering if you've considered keglands newer and more compact G2 or the more pricey but solid Spundit 2 that a lot of folk on here really like: https://homebrewerlab.com/store/product/p_2970438

I've been considering a Spundit and a Blowtie. My wife might order those for my birthday. I'll tell her what she got me when they get here, or I might order her some jewelry, and not understand when spunding valves arrive instead...
