More Version E Replacement mysteries. When I got my replacement Version
E they of course included new batteries. They would seem to be new and 
the calclator works fine.. BUT, when I run the diagnostic test, 
ON-D MTH   it says
ESD   210V    210V     


And NOTHING else.. There are no bars at all.. Now I distinctly remember 
doing this same test on other 48s including my old version C and they always
gave me the 4 bars in a pattern like.

ESD   210V    210V

Same as before, anyone else?  I don't think I have ever actually heard anyone 
say how to read the status of the batteries from the information given by this
test.  The manuals just say, "The bars indicate battery status".  Yeah right.
