Hi,
Got my OSTC 2C two weeks ago. One question about the battery life: Are 40 hours the max. time or are 40h a realistic value?

40h are worst case: Max. brightness, cold water.

On low brightness I have found battery life to be around 6 months having done some 50 dives avaraging 50 minutes per dive during that period. This still excludes the hours spent toying and demonstrating the OSTC on the surface....
In other words: Battery life is more than sufficient (tu):)-D

I'm charging my OSTC only very rarely, maybe every 3 months or so, just for downloading dives. I'm doing 1-2 dives per week.
Battery run time is no issue in my mind. Don't worry

Charging stops automatically (Of course), recharge when the unit is at 50-70% or 3,5-3,6V
