[Coco] Survey of Coco realtime clock users

[Arthur Flexser]

Out of curiosity, how'd you go about replacing the battery?  It looked like the
battery was potted in epoxy or something and not at all easy to replace.  On the
other hand, it was rated to last 10 years.  How long did yours hold out for?  I
never heard of a case of one finally giving out.
