    Hello I am going to pick up a new hybrid battery from Toyota for a 2014 Prius.
    I have used the OEM packs for second generation repair in the past. I was wondering if there is any difference in the modules the put in the gen 2 and gen 3. I'm aware of the case and connection differences but are they using the same primearth modules for both versions?
    Why not use a gen 3 pack? A $500 difference for 28 modules, so I'd like to know if there is any good reason to pay the extra money. I've rebuilt several traction batteries so a module swap to different case is not an issue.
    Thank you
