[RE-wrenches] Fm-80 oddness

[William Miller]

Jay:

I saw this exact behavior recently with an older MX80.  Replacing it
resolved the problem.

Follow-up.

The controller started up later after I left and according to history did
produce kWh.
I watched it for a good 15-20 minutes and it was in snooze the whole time.
Battery volts were low.

I’ve replaced it for now.

I ve never seen one do this before.
