Its not like Mylaps themselves need to offer repairs - just using a case that allowed access would meant 3rd party repairs could be made.
Mylaps have made the decision that their PT's aren't repairable - it wasn't to save costs, its not for technical reasons so its clearly to make you have to buy another.
Actually having a case that can open means having some form of mechanical seal, which can fail, i spent a frustrating day yesterday trying to get a machine working due to a sensors mechanical seal failing and allowing in water, bearing in mind the transponders spend a lot of time getting wet, AMB "could" have decided to seal fully and prevent moisture ingress and so make a more reliable product.

the problem with this thread is people are making statements of fact based on no knowledge. is an MRT a counterfeit? or a perfectly acceptable implementation of AMB technology, what does it cost to produce either type, did AMB deliberatly change the firmware to not read MRT or was it a by product of the new firmware. etc etc.

unless a representative from AMB and or MRT can come on here then you are all guessing and the conspiracy theories are getting more outlandish.

that said the schoolyard 5 year old name calling between robby and mark christopher is most entertaining
