I wonder if we'll ever know how rare the gray units are compared to the blue ones they are related to (or green ones since those are more rare).
I’ve been trying to figure that out for years. I feel like I will never know. The one that I own is DTL-1001 in the pictures with the Vigilante 8 video game. The first couple of photos are of a different model (DTL-H1001H) than the one that I have.
Yea, the DTL-H1001H is mine, and as far as I know, only the models with the trailing "H" were supposed to be gray, but yours is and doesn't have the trailing H. I do see yours is a later model than mine though (mine has mid 95 date codes inside with a 1994 GPU), so perhaps they changed the model number scheme of the DTL-H1001H's.
If PSX Dev were still up, someone DID have a photo of another DTL-H1001H which has the same label format as mine (Japanese-like, but NOT a Japanese label) though theirs had an earlier serial than mine (Not by much, only a couple hundred, which inferrs a VERY small batch possibly).
I would like to know the value, but I don’t plan to ever sell it. I have a crazy addiction to buying video game consoles I can’t help myself. I did get this console back in the 90s for free. The person didn’t know what they had. Check out my collection.

hi, on the back of your console. is the text by the ports in Japanese or English?
thanks
On mine it's English. I also found that while it has the direct RCA jacks like all DTL's have, the PCB does have a spot for S-Video which simply isn't populated. GPU is also "Rev A" silicon with 5-bit shading as the GPU is dated 1994, and uses the 2x dual ported VRAM, not SGRAM like later models. So mine is strange, it's got a Japanese style sticker that's in English, the ports are in English, it has the potential for direct S-Video if added back, and the GPU is early silicon. So it's early, but the ROM itself is no different than regular DTL-H1001's.
Hi, thanks for this.
everyone of these units seem to be different, seems like Sony just used whichever parts they had lying about. do you have some photos, I would like to see them if you dont mind.
thanks
I need to open my console up and see if i have an unpopulated S-video spot too. I'll take pictures of it and post them to compare.
I do not have a picture on-hand, and don't wish to take it apart again unless servicing it (last time I swapped OPU's to a "BAM"), but I can safely say it looks exactly like a regular DTL-H1001 internally, which too has an unpopulated S-Video port as well. I'd link to PSXDev where another user too had a DTL-H1001H which had a good photo of their board (earlier than mine, and using an EEPROM, not a PROM like mine is), but it appears PSXDev is down. (Glad I backed up the SDK!).
Hi helliant1,
is the writing on the back of your rear ports in English or Japanese and by the sounds of it you too dont have an s video port visible.
thanks
I’m not at home to verify if it’s in English or Japanese, will let you know.
Would be great if you could upload a picture of the rear ports.
I uploaded the pictures, but I don’t know if they went through, but the rear ports are labeled in English.
i’m having a difficult time adding the photos to the page. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.
