Darran,

Don't you mean stick it in simulator mode OR take it for a dive ?
Dive(s) will be sorted this week also will experiment with the Simulator

All, Newbie question here (diving with my new 2n later this week) :-) so please excuse my ignorance.. If you don't mind, is it correct that as per the Custom function CF47:Velocity warning (Color change) the 2n displays an assent alarm somehow if it rises to fast - where is this displayed ? Also the...

Hansjoerg,

Thanks, interesting, there is lots of confliction info on the web about Li-Ion batteries and their best maintenance. Overall they don't seem to like heat, hence the idea or removing Laptop batteries when not in use..

This is also a site packed with info : http://batteryuniversity.com/

Jan,

Believe me I'll try and get the 2n as wet as possible..

Giz,

Thanks for the info.

Bardass, I just wondered if the 2n was left in storage for 3/4 months and the battery ran flat, whether it would keep all the dive logs, and the battery would be OK being discharged. I would presume it would be fine, and the dive logs etc are kept on some sort of internal 2n storage..but thought it ...

Hi There, When not in use (and after a good clean water soak) I presume it is OK to store my OSTC 2n away, and let the battery discharge. Then charge again before the next dive ? Any idea how long a fully battery will last whilst in storage ? Does the OSTC 2n keep all the dive log data, even when th...

Bruce, from Australia :) Had to be Bruce really ;) Diving in Oz is very nice indeed. I had 2 weeks out there (not long enough) Coral Sea, Osprey Reef, Broughton Island. Fantastic.. Pick up my OSTC next week and will be diving for two weeks in Dahab - Red Sea so I can't wait. I was planning to just u...

Oliver,

Sounds perfect, thanks for the info.

Hi All, I have looked at the 2n .pdf manual and list of custom functions.. CF05 seems to say it will display the ascent rate if exceeded ? Is there normally an assent rate display as I can't see one.. How is the alert displayed ? I know stated in another post there is no audible alarm.. This link se...

Guys, Is it really a problem to get a new Li battery replaced every 5-10 years ? I would think by then we wll be using the new OSTC 5n ;) Matthias, >For a longer lifetime we also recharge the battery to 95% only which >dramatically increases the lifetime. That's interesting. What's the thinking behi...

Jeando,

Thanks for the link
