Suite #8 has been repaired (blown fuse has been replaced; loose wires soldered and isolated with electrical tape ). Additionally, we discovered a loose charging port in the same suite. After some adjustments and repairs the suit is functional again. The receiving connectors on the suit were slightly expanded open by repetitive insertions and removals of the charger plug making the charging dependent upon adjusting the plug to just the correct position for proper contact. Now just plug in and charge without fussing with it, for now. There are two other one-piece suits that require attention that we plan to get at soon.
