Kobo Aura edition 2 V1 vs V2: hardware kobo6/kobo7

I have a Kobo Aura Edition 2, sn start with N2367, so I identified it as an Kobo Aura Edition 2.

I want to patch my firmware, but pgaskin has 2 versions of the firmware for Kobo Aura Edition 2, namely V1 and V2. (can be found here).
The difference is that:
- "Kobo Aura Edition 2 v1"is for the kobo6 hardware.
- "Kobo Aura Edition 2 v2"is for the kobo7 hardware.

How do I know which hardware I have?

(I don't want to brick my device, so that why I want to be sure before trying to patch and flash anything)
