the problem i've heard is that there are too many FALSE POSITIVES. If you're forever blowing $150 because it misdetected something, that gets old real quick. Not to mention the time of swapping in a new unit, especially if you don't keep spares on hand.

The saw stop people had commented somewhere about there are far more reports of this issue than they sold saws.

Much like here "everyone has one"

Seriously tho, it has to be designed in a way that QC can test the security mechanisms/electronics w/o destroying it.

Could you rephrase that?

I believe he means that the number of false triggers exceeds the number of saws sold which isn't good.

 

[tynopik]

I took it to mean that they're saying the number of false positives being reported is grossly exaggerated

I can't imagine it being very difficult to find an analog for human skin

No, the salt water increases the conductivity of his skin, which is what triggers the stop.
