When I bought my Elite-T, I saw it was a 1868T. But I went back and looked at the tag and it says 1868T-5. What does the -5 designate?

"OK... what does the -5 mean?"

OK... Let's say you have 10 oranges (or apples or guitars),
then you take away 5 oranges...
You will only have 5 oranges left.

I hope that helps.

It's really close to a -E
which would mean eggplant.
