# Identify your device
There are basically two versions of the PortaPack. If you have one that looks like the one below, you have the H1.
There are basically six different versions of the PortaPack. It is important that you identify the correct version as this can affect how you install the firmware and device initial start-up. It is recommended you read the description of versions here. The H2 and H2+ versions are a slightly improved version, but the people making this copies never published the circuit diagrams or Code , hence breaking the license terms.

The H2 is a slightly improved version, but the people making this copy never published the source, hence breaking the license terms. It looks like this:

The main difference are the controls and the screen, but the H2 usually has extra circuitry to manage the battery charging and powering on/off. In this document, there is a brief description about the details. Check a more technical comparison [here](Differences-Between-H1-and-H2-models).
The main difference are the controls and the screen size along with the codec and processor chip. The H2 / H2+ has extra circuitry to manage the battery charging and powering on/off. In this document, there is a brief description about the details. Check a more technical comparison [here](Differences-Between-H1-and-H2-models).
# Power on/off
The original H1 powers instantly when you plug a power supply to the USB port. To turn it off, just unplug it. Similar to the issues with some USB cables while [upgrading the firmware](Update-firmware), the quality of your cable might affect the performance.
