Subject: Re: Cochran/Beuchat - know who to trash.
My IIa has been back to the factory twice now...and it still is not working
correctly...having spent the initial 1000 dollars and bearing the added cost
of shipping it back to the factory for repair...I feel like I have been taken
to the cleaners by Mike Cochran and company. As you indicated when the unit
is functional it is worth its weight in gold....but the NUMEROUS critical
failures I have had with my unit prevent me from relying on it for anything
more then a glorified dive profiler. As long as  I continue to get such
substandard reliability from Cochran products I will continue to refuse
recommending their technology to my compatriats....
