   Turn the battery check on.  If it shuts off by itself in 30 seconds, you
   have the 4T circuit (lowest drain).  Otherwise you have the original 
   (much) higher drain board (up to 7 times as high as a 4T).

I would like to add:

If it shuts off in less than 30 seconds, you have just killed the 
batteries.

If it continues more than 30 seconds, you'd better replace the batteries 
because sure as hell the mirror will lock up on the next long exposure you 
make.
