Ian,
according to Guy, we have two types of memory cards, CMOS and mixed MOS.
The former battery lifetime is 10 years and the latter 5.
-
Some
counties are asking me what their battery lifetime should be and I could only
tell if I knew what had been sold to them. Can you make this information
available to us?
-
Is
the telegraph pole test the single reliable way of telling that a memory card
battery is low?
-
Should/can
we advocate customers to replace batteries (that can apparently be purchased
from Radio Shack and the likes)?
-
Could
- as some Florida customers have suggested - low batteries be linked to
corruption?
Regarding
AccuVote batteries:
-
are
any measures available to anticipate leakage?
-
is
battery leakage linked to a particular brand (ie.
Yuwasa)?
-
can
battery leakage be prevented?
-
should
AccuVotes be automatically shipped to Global for recuperation in case of
leakage?
Thanks,
Nel
