The zorched battery pack has been implicated in over-taxing and burning out the control module.
They've just now located a control module ($180 ) and will purchase that,and enough battery 'sticks' to freshen the pack.(to protect the new module).
I raised the project budget to $1,000.
They'll use the Insight to train a new electronics tech,and give me a break on labor cost.
They'll call me.
