I brought my Eon late Feb 2015 and now have 4 Pods. Two pods were purchased in Feb, two more in August 2015.
All battery indicated good at the time of purchase.
The two purchased in August have both shown low batteries, One of the Feb pods has also come up with Low battery.
POD 1 - s/n 1443105951 Feb 2015 approx 100 dives Low Battery Feb 2016 Battery being changed by local Suunto deaer
POD 2 - s/n 1443105998 Feb 2015 approx 100 dives Battery still over 3/4 full
POD 3 - s/n 1519106415 Aug 2015 approx 30 dives Low Batt Dec 2015 Battery changed under warranty by Suunto Dealer
POD 4 - s/n 1519106443 Aug 2015 approx 30 dives Low Batt FEB 2015 Battery being changed by local Suunto deaer
As you can see 1 Pod is functioning as I expect it would. PODs 1 & 2 were purchased just before the recall (Which was for POD's not sold and not showing faults to my understanding) PODS 3 & 4 were those post recall once issues had been sorted. Dives are generally 50-60 minute dives
No Pods are left pressurised for any undue length of time etc.
I'm guessing that because I brought the first two when the Eon had shipped so I'm guessing those hadn't been on the shelf long and given the last two were post recall again I'm guessing not a long shelf life.
My question is. What would the expected life expectancy be? As you know you don't see the battery life unless you delve into the menu (an annoyance) and have the Pods active. So rather now do I need to pressurise each pod before a dive trip or can I least anticipate a given time say number of dives or length of time?
Regards
