New Nodes for Smart Strings?

[jess_her]

He didn't answer my question       Are these the higher quality nodes?
I sent him another email asking him again.

Are these nodes the same diameter (for mounting) otherwise?  I'm wondering if I design something with the nodes I have, will these replacement nodes also fit the same.  It appears so.

I don't know It's kinda hard to tell with pictures.

The samples he sent me looked the same just they were filled with the clear stuff so it was level with the outer edges. Mind you I didn't get out my mm ruler. Maybe I should. I did notice that my initial order had about a 1/4 inch more space between nodes than the 2nd batch I received. It was really noticable when the strings were stretch out side by side. I think I will add a tie wrap to the base of the nodes on the longer strings to try to get the same length.
