Difference between Niterider Blowtorch 1.0 and 2.0?

Does anyone know the difference between the Niterider Blowtorch 1.0 (2004) and the 2.0 (2005) version?

I'm interested in buying one and I've seen the 2004 version at Wheel World for ~$270 - compared to ~$400 for the 2005 2.0 version.

I'm just wondering what the difference is. From the marketing materials I've seen, it's just a lighter casing and a faster charger. Anything else?

FYI,

Wheelworld is out of stock of the 04 version and will sell you the 05 one for the same price. They bought a boat load of them from NiteRider and got a sweet deal price wise.

They sold me the 05 one for $270.

The 05 these improvements:
- 2.5 hour fast charger
- 4 hour battery
- Orange warning light

This is what the sales rep told me when I was in their shop.

A great light and sweet price.

The same thing applies to the Storm in their ad.
