@Reehan ...sounds good ! and good on you for getting it done ! I very much like the X1, and the Multideco interface is great ! Happy Diving !

@Reehan Glad to hear you got it done ! My X1 is still limping along..., when not diving I keep an eye on the charge, and charge it every 4-6 weeks. Since you used epoxy, I take maybe you won't be able to re-do this again ?... ...one comment for a previous post above about gel and...

@803_SCUBA @Bald Wookie I ended up using the same glue "Bald Wookie" maybe still has access to above . It is working fine. I've done more "research" on glues, based on the stuff mentioned by sci-tek -- two part heat activated urethane glue. An unofficial "slip" by someone I talked to at DUI...

@happy-diver Looks like a good job ! I looked up AZBOND but only available in Ozziland. I've called several large diveshops on the coasts and Florida, as well as DUI, DRIS, and Si-Tech's North American distributor. No-one would commit to recommending a glue/cement. However I've learned a few...

...I should mention that my suit is a tri-laminate, not neoprene, so the bonding needs to be between the inside suit fabric and the PU (poly-urethane plastic) glove ring. Thus am trying to stay away from glues/cements that are made to glue rubber...?

Thank you for all the suggestions, great community !!!! I was trying to follow Si-Tech's instructions so was focusing on finding a "polyurethane-based based 2-part heat setting glue", which some of the glues mentioned in other posts I've read yesterday are not...? I'll check on SC 4000 for...

Thanks both ! will try that. Yeah, cutting the first stitch was the hard part. Spent a while reading SB for glue recommendations. I am in Canada, so no access to the Si-Tech glue, nor Bostik 777. Seems like the DRIS glue may be Bostik 2402 without the hardener ? STABOND UK-148 also looks...

...after fretting the DIY cuff ring replacement, I went ahead and did it. Short answer is the Si-Tech QCS PU Ring fits like a glove in my drysuit sleeves once I removed the ZipSeal. See this thread I just posted. Hope this helps others who are fretting doing the same...

...a couple more pics

Thought I share this, as I had been quite worried about replacing my ZipSeals with the Si-Tech QCS PU Ring, to use with Rolock 90 system gloves. A while ago I started this thread drysuit cuff repair/replace but started this new one with a title easier to point to the issue. After over a year...

@Reehan Sorry to hear you had to drill out the screws, I believe they must be stainless-steel so replacing them may take some searching. The case is anodized aluminum, and steel and aluminum do not get along corrosion wise, so probably this is why they would not turn. My X1 is still limping...

...Thanks for that ! @moose_grunt I was following the other thread and not seen this.

Thanks again @moose_grunt , too bad the screen repair/exchange did not work out. I've been researching the potting compound a little, and seems there are some silicone gels that one can use. From your pictures, it seems that what you took out of it looks silicon based. Had you settled on any...

@moose_grunt ....should have done this above

...got it, thanks !

BTW moose_grunt-- were you ever successful in replacing battery and re-potting ?

Thank you moose_grunt and Snusmumrik !!! While my X1 still works OK so far, I will try battery replacement and re-potting when it fails. This info will be great help to get a replacement battery. If/when I do so I will post my results. I tried RBW several times, including Wayback Machine...

...too bad, I seem to remember that post had some useful bits, like what battery was inside...

Hi There -- are you able to see the thread in RBW ? I am trying and seems it is no longer there, or maybe there is something wrong with my login ?
