Al,

It's true that we used a field battery so I suppose I cannot completely rule battery or connector failure out. We apparently had full voltage at linkup and then nothing 3 minutes later. I'm still leaning to the breaker. I actually saw this breaker failure happen to another team on Friday (I was on the field as an inspector/troubleshooter).
