Yeah, that's an expected and reasonable time for maintenance.
But you're now specifically talking about doing it under -known-
circumstances. And I'd be willing to bet you can likely actually
preemptively address the issue with fP-Tech support if you put your phone
to your ear and bother to call them in advance instead of complaining about
it when it breaks--or even relying on a grace period.
What was your complaint, again?
