heh... [Smile] There's three answers to the 'trick question': [Big Grin]

If it carres the Philips brand name only, it's a DP70.

If it carres the Norelco brand name (which also says 'North American Philips' on it as well), its an AAII.

Both are officially model # EL4000 [Smile]

Interesting... I removed my personal AA-2 which was on loan to a theatre near SLC, and I installed a permanent rebuilt DP-70 in its place.
