    "The official Kobo help article above maps the `kobo12` and `kobo13` firmware channels to the WRONG models for the 4.45 line. It lists kobo12 as Kobo Libra Colour (N428) and kobo13 as Kobo Clara BW/Colour (N365/N367); these are reversed.",
    "Verified by downloading the archives and reading the per-channel board codes: kobo12 = mt8113t E60T00 (6in Clara BW/Colour, no stylus), kobo13 = mt8113t E70T00 (7in Libra Colour, ships the MyScript handwriting + Foxit PDF stylus stack). This file therefore INTENTIONALLY deviates from the official docs for N428/N365/N367 and uses the corrected channels.",
    "All other channels match the official docs and were verified correct: kobo14 = E60V00 (Clara BW P365), kobo8 = E80P00 + EA0P10 (Sage + Elipsa), kobo9 = E70K10 (Libra 2), kobo10 = E60K20 (Clara 2E), kobo11 = EA0T00 (Elipsa 2E)."
