The UVIS spare detector (UVIS build 2) is currently installed in WFC3 during ambient ground testing. We have performed testing of the end-to-end system throughput on the UVIS channel, and find that it performs better than expectations. The result is that the unfiltered (clear) performance of the UVIS spare detector is much closer to that of the flight detector (UVIS build 1). Comparing the 4 chips on the two detectors, chip 2 of the flight detector still offers the best performance, but the performance of the other 3 chips (chip 1 on the flight detector and chips 1 & 2 of the spare detector) are comparable.
