This is probably a stupid question, but I am a research tech and recently got "promoted" to a higher level tech. Despite this, I have no change in duties. I am the current lab manager and I was told for the past year I was doing more than what I got paid for/what my title entailed essentially, and after a year I got promoted aka get paid more even though the amount of work I do stays the same. Is this worth mentioning in my activity description since I'm literally doing the same amount of work as I've always done, just my title changed?

a tech is a tech~

I don't think you should spend a lot of space discussing it - a phrase will do. They're more interested in what you do than your specific title. Usually with research tech positions, you get mandatory pay raises based on time spent on the job because they can't actually pay you the lower rate indefinitely.
