Battery:
One 3 V lithium battery: CR 2450
Battery storage time (shelf life): Up to three years
Replacement: Every three years, or more often depending on dive activity
Life expectancy at 20°C/68°F:
0 dives/y - 3 years
100 dives/year – 2 years
300 dives/year – 1.5 years
The following conditions have an effect on the expected battery lifetime:
The length of the dives
The conditions in which the unit is operated and stored (e.g. temperature/cold
conditions). Below 10°C/50°F the expected battery lifetime is about 50-75% of that
at 20°C/68°F
The use of the backlight and audible alarms
The use of the compass
The quality of the battery. (Some lithium batteries may exhaust unexpectedly,
which cannot be tested in advance)
The time the dive computer has been stored until it gets to the customer. (The
battery is installed in the unit at the factory)
