Interestingly, both the Monitor II and the Aladdin Pro are made
by UWATEC, and are essentially the same internally.  

And, the Aladdin Pro also reads inaccurately when the battery is low.

One problem noticed with the Aladdin Pro is that the low battery warning
is not real functional, and they have been known to go into this kind
of failure mode during a dive without any advanced warning.

I like my Aladdin Pro(s), but replace the batteries every couple of years
now just to be safe(r).
