Confusion of Chilis: Chili Padi, African Devil(Piri-piri, Thai Dragon), Cabai Malaysia I & II

An African Devil Chili.

Many chili heads asked me, what's the difference between Cabai Malaysia I and Cabai Malaysia II and also Chili Padi, Thai Dragon and African Devil. "It seems that they're all the same" said a chili head.

To clear the confusion.
Chili Padi is very hot and its length is less than an inch long, less aromatic.

Thai Dragon/African Devil is hot and its length is about 1.0 inch to 1.5 with a diameter of no larger than 6 milimeters, rich in aroma.

Cabai Malaysia I and II differs in length, between 1.0 to 1.5 inches and 1.5 to 2.0 inches respectively with its width at about 11 milimeters. It milder than African Devil, more texture and less aroma.
