Teric owners, have you required repair or replacement service?

Mine is still 100% after 10 days in storage.

Hi @O-ring

How old is your bad Teric, about how many dives? How old is your good Teric, about how many dives?

Old teric - 4 years in Jan; battery replaced once by Divetronix in 7/21; 100 dives (give or take)
New teric - 9 mos; 50 dives (give or take)

I got back my Teric from Dive-Tronix yesterday, another example of excellent, fast service. I mailed it off last Wednesday and had it back in hand 1 week later.

So, I don't have Teric 8, but a repaired Teric 7. According to the work order, "Unit will only receive AI signal when placed against working transmitter. Air integration antenna was found to have broken loose from the solder joint on the circuit board. Antenna was re-soldered, and unit now works as it should. This appears to be an assembly failure."

The dive log on the computer was still intact. Everything else had to be set up, it did not take long, I've practiced.

This will be the one.

I'm looking at a Teric from my local dive shop. How do I know if it's a 1-5, 6, 7, or 8? Is there anyway to tell? Thanks Everyone!!!

There is no such thing as a Teric 1-5, 6, 7, or 8. They are all just Terics. Those numbers were given by scubadada to identify how many Terics he has had.

I'm very sorry for the confusion, @tursiops is absolutely right

Teric owners, have you required repair or replacement service?

All that would resonate with me IF Terics were dying in such a way that they were causing people to have to end dives early. Or even to miss dives. It's not like they don't work. The problem that many of us have had is that the battery starts to run down faster than it should when it is...

I just have 1 Teric that has gone through several repairs & battery replacement in the past 2.5 years (580 dives), specifically:
- Battery
- Depth gauge
- Battery
- Antenna

 

[scubadada]

Has anyone else had the melted depth gauge that @Dan had?

I hadn't looked at the Teric manual for some time with regard to battery life: A six month battery life, allowing for a 10% buffer, would require battery loss of

Given all of these issues, maybe Shearwater should introduce a Teric 2 with the required redesigns to fix the frequent issues. Just a thought. That's not uncommon in the world of electronics.
