UEMIS battery replacement - cont.

[gokcer]

Thank you for the informatioın Alex, waitingfor your underwater tests results...

Underwater environment may affect the consumption due to ambient temparature, however, it seems that 900mAh will be reasonble and work fine wiht SDA.

Original battery in general lasts about 12 ~ 15 dives each 40 miniture avarage.

Also it is important to test "the sleep-mode" power consumption rate.. without changing it should last weeks or months..

SDA did 6 dives today in Gauge mode ( not to bend it), to 100 feet for total time if 222 minutes. By the end of the day battery was showing 4 bars ( -2).

Another one awakened from the dead? If anyone is looking for a brand new unit with a transmitter, send me your name and number and I pass it on to the owner of whose computer we have repaired, he has a spare new one.

I used the "Magic Gel" from Raytech. It's way cheaper than the RTV615 two component silicone and you can get it in smaller amounts.

Since the battery replacement my SDA survived 25 dives (33 m max).
