How do I tell what generation of EST Genesis I have

I have a Est Genesis,
Red horn strobe, no “FIRE” lettering, how would I know if it’s a 2nd gen or a 1st Gen?

Model number. The G1-HVxx (xx is candela output) is the first generation Genesis and sounds completely different from the later Genesis models. The G1-HOVxx and HDVxx are the second generation and have the sound we all associate with the Genesis. There is also a chime, with C replacing H. Remote strobes share the same body as the horn strobe with the sound holes.

HOVxx and HDVxx horn sound

Mines a 2nd generation.
