Excited to see how the TH665e goes. I work in Australia for Sandvik's biggest underground mining equipment customer, and we have been using the TH663i since its release. They are a great machine. My concern from a machine maintenance person perspective is nothing to do with the performance, but rather, the vulnerable looking battery placement on the RH/F corner of the machine. This area is a high contact area in normal day to day operations. So much so, that our company specifies additional horizontal 'bat wing' plates welded on the sides to add clearance to the main structures during wall impacts. I imagine that the swappable battery and mechanism will not be a big fan of a touch on the wall.
