Battery I2C shows FAIL because on some of the early Fox-1s, there was an issue with the telemetry ADC on the battery board. So IHU sees no activity on the Battery I2C line and reports it as failed, it doesn't really have a way to tell that it's the chip at the other end and not the line. We did not have time to isolate and fix it between builds of Fox-1A, C, and D as they came in a string in 2014 and 2015. Fox-1B got manifested late(r) enough that we solved and applied the fix on her build. Fox-1E should be good as well.

Why does the 'Battery I32C' indicate 'FAIL' (although I see that this is the same for the other FOX satellites)?
