Do they need to be removed from the DSS boot for battery change? How easy is that?

Do they need to be removed from the DSS boot for battery change? How easy is that?

Yes, the back of the DSS bungee mount is solid. The mount must be removed to access the battery compartment.

How Easy?

• Well, if I can do it - anyone can. The learning curve is about one on-and-off attempt.
• The key? Patience - a little pressure here and there, work it gently and it comes on and off with surprising ease.
• I dunk the mount in warm water. Like most rubber products the bungee mount becomes increasingly malleable after soaking in warm water.
• It's like putting on a new wetsuit - a little tight here and there at first - but easier after each repetition

What about the battery you might wonder?

• It too is easy to replace at home or in the field
• Time? About 5 minutes - give or take.
• Cost at a dive shop? If you are a regular and bring the battery, it should be a ~$10 tip and a 'thanks'. Me, I'd bring a six-pack too.

Battery Specs - see page 57 of product pdf

• https://www.oceanicworldwide.com/us/media/wysiwyg/manuals/12-5213-r02_Eng.pdf
• Type, CR2450
• Availability/Cost? Everywhere - small and easy to carry. A couple of buck for q-one, less in quantity.
• Shelf Life, Up to 5 years
• User Replaceable
• Scuba Use, 1 year or 300 dive hours

Watch the dude from DSS easily remove and replace the bungee mount in this video. Sure, he's had a lot of practice, but you can do it!

Hi @Cert1967

I have a VT 3, battery change is very easy. Getting it out of the wrist boot, in or out of the DSS boot, is not so easy

@scubadada

Oh, its really pretty easy - after all you want the puck to stay in the DSS boot, right?

This AM I soaked the unit+boot for about 5 minutes in warm water. After which, it took me ~3 minutes to wiggle it out and ~2 mins more to nudge it back in.

All in all, the battery lasts a long time, minimizing the need for changes.

Most divers will get a year of dives from one battery.

You-all keep lookin at the fabulous VT4s that are up for sale - but no takers yet.

So, I'll sweeten the offer

NEW PRICE = $175

All of you that have been looking for a simple computer at a great price, this is it!

I'm very familiar with this great computer considering I've got a few hundred dives on mine and very interested in at least making you an offer (on one as a back up) but... I might have missed something somewhere. Condition? How many dives on them? Photos? Including battery compartment door where they are most likely to flood? That would go a long way towards nudging me along.

One sold and on the way - USPS says Monday delivery - to the gentleman from Indiana.

Oceanic's VT4 - perhaps their most successful puck computer.

On the fence? Nows the time!
