>1.  CPSC, UWATEC AG Announce Recall of 1995 Dive Computers

I am absolutely gobsmacked that anyone could still have one of this vintage
computers, for one of two reasons:
1) The 'battery replacement' is a new computer (at a fairly hefty price I
might add - you cannot get the old battery so MUST buy the later version
Air-Z at UK£102.5 plus shops handling charges)
2) They don't seem to last too well - certainly when mine breaks again I
will give it away & buy another Suunto !!! I don't use it in air integrated
mode as the transmitter is alles abgefucked & they want silly money to fix
it (throw it away & give you a new replacement).
You won't catch me spending another penny on Uwatec!!!
Cheers.....
