Interesting to note they can harden the boards against moisture BUT it would incur higher cost in repair !!
I agree no moisture is the way to go (dry air + a tropical coating is good) but unless hermetically sealed with a inert gas not totally practical, so mod + extra sealing of board & connectors would be the way to go.
As to the extra cost of repair, small change in the scheme of things.
I realy do not understand how Either manufacturer could not envisage the problems encountered.
& failure, costs on postcard please,
