Hi fellow divers,

last saturday i noticed my SUUNTO solution said BAT ( meaning battery low ).
I bought it at around april 1995 and the battery should last 2000 hours.
The computer did function though.
Normally when you get BAT you should not dive with it.
I did work properly so the dive went on.
Happily everything went as planned.
On sunday i checked it again at home . This time at room temperature (18
celsius) instead of the 8 degrees celsius of saturday.
I did not get BAT anymore.

It seems this phenomenom is temperature related and this would seem logical
as a battery is a chemical thing.

Is my assumption correct and should i not replace the BAT ? 

Happy SAFE diving !
