IGR J08408-4503 (Gotz et al. 2006, ATel #813), triggered Swift BAT on 2008-09-21 at 07:55:08 UT. The Swift/BAT light curve is consistent with a constant level, and the time-averaged spectrum from T-10 to T +730s is best fit by a powerlaw with an exponential cutoff. This fit gives a photon index of 1.3 (-1.1, +0.9), and a cut off energy of 22.7 (-10, +38) keV (chi squared 43.4 for 55 d.o.f.).
