  Oh

  According to Straight, the issue was caused by a piece of wiring that had come loose from the battery that powered a wristwatch used to control the exoskeleton. This would cost peanuts for Lifeward to fix up, but it refused to service anything more than five years old, Straight said

  Yeah, that’s something any jackass with a soldering iron could fix in about 10 seconds
