This one is a bit different with the printed nameplate and a 2 piece stem...

    So yes there is an adjustment on the 125 peak kits that allows you to adjust the needle movement as far as "hang time" and speed at which the needle swings back to zero. Adjusting to show more watts will throw the kit out of calibration and be useless. Do I trust Less not to do that, absolutely...

    Sirio SY27-4 Beam Install

    They work ok for what they are and they are cheaply made. I don't beleive they are glues, i beleive they are pressed in and maybe cold like liquid nitrogen would be the way to go? I have an 8 element jo gunn but it needs a total refurb and i dont have a sturdy tower to put it on so it just sits...
