[sdiy] Juno-106 prematurely dying battery

[Eric Frampton]

Hi all -

I'm looking at a friend's Roland HS-60 (the Juno-106 with speakers in it, aka Juno-106S). I've opened it up once before, and he's brought it back for another round. It seems to be working perfectly, except that it keeps eating batteries. I put a holder for a CR2032 in there the first time around ('cause, frankly, they're easier to find than BR2325's), but after about two weeks or so the memory takes a dump 'cause the battery is dead. Apparently it's gone through a couple of batteries this way.

This version of the PC board has the CPU Board mod "to insure a longer battery life" already incorporated into it.

Anybody else run into this?

Thanks,
Eric
