Is there any alternative? It would be very difficult to run down the battery in an Uwatec (or the OMS branded version). The unit is designed to last 11 years with 100 dives/year. Most people will lose the thing long before that, and if you manage to actually put 1100 dives on it, it'll probably be so scratched and beat up by then that you won't want to change the battery anyway. -Mike Rodriguez <mikey@mi*.ne*> http://www.mikey.net/scuba/schedule.html Pn(x) = (1/(2^n)n!)[d/dx]^n(x^2 - 1)^n -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
