Hey! looks like we all have one!LOL! My yellow one don't have instant on but my brown one does. Its the newer of the two and has solid state HV also. Ive had the yellow one since '96 and have NEVER had a problem with it. Its funny they could build these in Taiwan back in the day and they were made well, that is not the case with the newer stuff...weird
