We also do change the battery to any oil filled Uwatec dive computer, except for the last series, the "Smart". These are the infrared interface models and we can not reset the battery indicator to 99% in these models. Check our website: www.divewatchdoctor.com
The D9 opening tool that Smartinterface sells is no good (see picture below). The "teeth" are very shallow and the tool loses its grip on the D9 ring as soon as you start applying some torque on it and you end up badly scratching the rear case. It surprised me, being a german tool. Instead, I...
Don´t know about the Atom transmitter, but Oceanic transmitters (for the Geo and OC1) both use a B016 O-ring. Easy to get since it´s an ASTM standard size.
I understand you have not taken your D6 to the water yet, so probably is just water vapor. I bet you the jeweler did not change the o-ring either, another reason for refraining from diving until you have it opened by a service center to see what's going on inside and remove the water vapor. Of...
Buy the titanium strap for the OC1 (full disclosure: I own one). I've seen them on sale on ebay for $ 99. At that price is a steal and will last forever.
We do change the battery of the OCi, the O-ring and pressure test it in water to 165 feet for $ 50. We provide the same service to all otherOceanic dive computers as well as Suuntos. www.divewatchdoctor.com
Concur with Tbar. 70 is the recommended hardness for dive computer O-rings.
On a different note, but also pertaining to this thread: We always change the O-ring when we service a dive computer. It´s also what all manufacturers recommend.
You can get it from a dive computer Oring provider that sells on ebay. Look him up under the name "Battastic". I usually get the odd size O rings from him.
I don't want to get into the discussion if the service center acted correctly or not or advise you about how to proceed. From a technical perspective, most likely the service center replaced the entire electronic module of your OC1. We have opened several flooded computers and, unless the...
Darthtony:
I appreciate jseyfert3 comment, but your recent diving profiles are not dives with short surface intervals, repetitive dives deeper than earlier ones, multiple ascents, and substantial multiday diving. Any penalization for unsafe diving I've seen, extends up to 48 hours after the...
No. It should be totally desaturated by now. Is it a new computer and still under warranty? If it´s not under warranty, try pushing all four buttons simultaneously. This should reset your computer without opening it.
Probably you have solved your D9 problem by now. In case not, most likely your pressure sensor is dead. Has to go back to Suunto and they are going to charge a significant amount to install a new one. We could open it for you, remove the battery, close it back and see what happens. But I´m very...
