I haven't harvested any yet. (that was my next question, are the red ones ready?) I'll pull one off, cut it open and take a pic. Thanks.

If they're red they're ready.

Looks like some sort of Trinidad/Tobago chili. I think you're good no matter what it is.

These peppers are from 2 separate plants (pictured above) which I got as seedlings and were labelled as Trinidad Scorpion. These are my first peppers picked of the season.

it looks like it could be a 7 pot or trinidad scorp. not a very good phenotype though..

wonder if its superhot heat or hab level.

They remind me of the Congo Trinidads I grew.

I know ya always can't tell by the tail but if none of the pods are growing a scorpion's tail I'd at least say it's not a scorpion. My layman guess it's a habanero of sorts.

I'll do a taste test, one of these and a habenero to get an idea of it's heat.
 
I suppose it makes sense to use the same thread to identify my other plants?
 
This is supposed to be a chocolate trinidad scorpion.

yes they do and the ones in the picture are to smooth to be scorpions in my opinion

Regular Scorpion peppers have kinda a leathery feel, and a Scorpion pepper taste is highly acidic and unmistakable.  Its kinda like eating a lemon or lime, you get that acidic taste and searing heat. 
 
Good luck on your taste test and identity.

I wouldn't discount it being a 7 Pot Jonah.

So I did a taste test with a few people today at my buddy's tattoo shop. A tattoo shop is a good place to find manly men who love spicy food and no pepper is too hot or at least that's what they say. hehe
 
First we all ate a slice of habenero for comparison. Then we all ate a slice of the not/maybe Trinidad Scorpion. I got a cool clean sweetness for about a second or two before the heat came. This pepper is significantly hotter than a habenero. I didn't get much feedback from the others in terms of flavour. One guy got the hiccups. One guy who bragged about how he loves hot, asked to keep the habeneros I brought but didn't want any more of my pepper.
