Channel width varies from .9mm to 1mm....
The only difference between the WW-LE and the original WW is the slit nozzle. The original WW (AL topped) has a 3.5mm wide slit, and the WW-LE (nickel plated copper mid plate and top) has a 2.5mm wide slit.

All D-Tek and Cooltechnica WW blocks have been made with slitting saws.
