Especially with heavy dew and frost. The hair can
shed water for several hours while when its not
windy. There may even be a material one could
spray on the fur to encourage the droplets to run
off.

The lot of 12- NT1-A's we received in August of
2004 (Serial #'s circa 21283) deal much better
with moisture. My two units bought in 2002 and
2003 (i.e. #7734 and #6784) start sputtering
after several hours in high humidity.

I'll do some condom tests too. Any other
variables you can think of we should test for?
