I'll start with one solid state and two chemical sensors.

Edit: typo.

Also, I'm thinking I'll probably give it around 100 hours then decide if I want to add a second. I'll likely never run 3 solid state sensors.

Here's my GBM head with 3 green flash oxygen scientifics on the NERD cable and a galvanic on the P3. Awesome so far! 20' flushes and always right on. So solid I'm questioning the stability of my galvanic. The solid states even pick up when condensation is gradually getting on the galvanic and reading a bit low, usually by about 0.1atm. Excellent cells so far.

What's really incredible with these cells are their response time. Depending on how hard you lay on your mav you can actually see the local high PO2 before it all mixes together. They don't seem to mind a little condensation on them like the galvanics either.

Reach out to Greg Borodiansky at Scubatron if you have GBM questions.

Thanks - good feedback there! Anyone else with them yet?

I've got them. Will be in the water this weekend. So far, they look good. better response and stable readings. I've got pyroscience on the way as well.
 
I've had one in my XCCR for about 900 minutes dive time so far. Very stable. Question for anyone: new voltage for a CR2477 battery is 3.184 volts. After 900 minutes mine is down to 2.955 volts. Website says any voltage below 3.3 volts could cause accuracy issues, but the new battery is less than that to start. I wonder if there are updated specs?
 
Sounds normal, lithium batteries have that big plateau and drop off fast. I would imagine you'd quit using it around 2.8V I have yet to encounter the low battery state on mine, I would imagine it has some indication (red flash?). Also curious.

When the battery gets low, the reading will go to 0 for 6 seconds every 60 seconds. It's not in the manual but that's the answer I got from KISS, when I asked how I am supposed to know when the battery is dying. 3.3V is the pyro ones, not oxygen scientific.

I have a question for you. If you leave the computer plugged into the unit will it kill the battery in the SS sensor? (or have you been unplugging the cell/monitor after use) I remember reading about some crazy battery life but can't find where I read that and the manual is pretty skinny.
