| − | In speaking with Craig Robart about some meter repairs for a friend in South America the other day, Craig was was kind enough to impart a very important datum regarding the Mark VII E-Meters produced by the C Of S.

| |
| − | That being that we are reaching what is known as "End of Life" for many of the Mark VII meters, quantum or otherwise. This is a software and electronics term that means there is no more support given, when referring to software generally, and sometimes with electronics meaning the item is UN-repairable due to proprietary components, such as integrated circuits, that are no longer made and are unavailable along with a host of other possibilities concerning an esoteric, obsolescence built in item, such as the VII's. The current term for such an item is a "brick". Nothing can be done for or with it, it's useless from there on out.

| − | What does this mean? It means it's time to start looking for other options as far as your meter(s) are concerned. There are many options available from non-COS manufacturers. The last many meters Craig received for repair were bricks and just unrepairable which means this is a rapidly occurring thing with the production cycle of the meters themselves and hasn't even gotten anywhere close to a pinnacle yet. As the Meters are used continually they WILL fatally crash and one should have something other than a Mark VII or quantum with them as a backup meter for their PC's sake if not their own in solo session.
