Good day mates..
Would like to ask advise.
I got an H3 Seabear Dive watch but I lost its charger.. Any idea where can I buy a charger for it?
 
I have the H3, I can tell you which contacts have the power going in. Maybe you can fashion one?

I pulled my charging cable since I was curious in case mine was lost. Just modify female end of USB extension cable. Take off the female "cage" and open it up so the male portion with the contact strips are left and it should work. I tested with VOM and the connections match.

Still my favorite computer.

I tried this and wanted to come back and thank you for the idea! I thought my trusty H3 was done for and now she lives to dive another day! Many thanks for providing a solution.

Awesome! I didn't know anybody was still using these.

I really liked the one I had. It was a sad day for me when one of the buttons completely quit working.

This will actually be used primarily now for cave survey. I have a few other trimix computers, but everyone on my team says this is the best to conduct survey.

That is interesting. What specifically makes it better for conducting a survey? As compared to a Shearwater Teric or Perdix?

The accuracy of the compass is what I understand. The garmin is second choice.
