Just because a battery is “sealed in” does not mean it can’t be replaced. Witness the battery of the iPhone and Samsung which can be replaced for a reasonable price and the unit resealed.
There really is no need for fast charging a dive computer. My G2 dive computer needs short charge every few dives to top off, but before I can connect the cable I need to make sure the device is rinsed and dried.
My iPhone X gets slightly warm with wireless charging but it’s no big deal.
While Perdix with the ubiquitous AA battery draws a lot of praise, you have to be aware of the state of your used battery before each dive and the unit needs to be rinsed and dried before the battery is changed out. Each time there is a risk damage or wear and tear on the o ring which can flood the battery compartment and ruin your dives.
