OSTC 2 questions

[ijdod]

As the technical specs haven't yet been posted for the new OSTC2, I have a few questions about this computer:

- What are the dimensions, especially compared to the OSTC3 and OSTC Sport?
- What sort of rechargeable battery technology does it use? What is the expected life of the battery in time and dives? How well does it perform under cold diving conditions?

(I've had some bad experiences with the shelf-life of some types of modern rechargeable devices. Some types will deteriorate regardless of use)

Check the attached Fyler, which has all the info you need. Here's also a link to the manual: http://www.heinrichsweikamp.com/home/ap ... EN_web.pdf Which has a table at the end.

Lithium Ion.

>60h in Eco mode (Even in Cold water) and 700 cycles.

No problems whatsoever. The amount of current needed for the OSTC is much less then the cell could provide. It can easily provide this current in cold water.

St. By is two years (~1%/Week).
