I posted a similar reply about trying to remove
power for extended period. In an unrelated post I saw
this:

the MP2x00 does not have an internal backup battery,
but a supercap. The supercap is expected to hold
sufficient charge to power the RTC for 5-8 hours."
--------------------------------------------

Given this info about the supercap is correct, it
explains the experience I had with removing power from
my Newt for 10 hours or so during a MB swap and then
finding the top slot working again...

Try giving your Newt a long rest ;-)

Regards,
Bernie
