Question about SI Fuel Cell

[Oak street]

Are there any major differences between the 9096-29 and 9096-82 SI fuel cell models?

I noticed the tonal US flag on both the styles, but the 82 model has the letters “Molon Labe” on the left arm. Any other differences I should be aware of? Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot, I knew there had to be some feature which distinguished one from the other.

Are the icons absolutely the same?

Yep

Nope. They are different. OO9096-29 has the Tonal Flag icon. OO9096-82 (Molon Labe) has the Steel Flag icon. I bought the Molon Labe a few weeks ago and noticed the difference then. Nearly the same but the Tonal has a painted look, the Steel has the flag sort of etched in the metal.

Looks like polished vs matte in your pics

Yep

Icons are actually a bit different. The 29 has a true two-shaded grey tonal grey color vs the 82 has a “polished” chrome tonal grey icon.

Also the 29 has a red-white-blue microfiber bag vs the 82 has a tonal grey microfiber bag.

The Steel is definitely a more matte finish compared to the other. It felt like it was flatter too. The Tonal felt high compared to it, like the polished coating made it thicker. Hard to explain unless you have them both in your hands.
