I'm upgrading my NA-GH3 housing to accommodate the Vacuum check, not received the parts yet - prob another week or so.
But the main difference is the new switch - do you think there is enough room for the switch? Also its the valve that is the most expensive part of the upgrade, not just the electronics.

I have one on a NA-EM5. All you need is a M14 or M16 port. You can use the offset version if your port already has a sync or mic connector installed. You have to send the housing in to install the vacuum leak detector electronics though. Great system.

Deco,
Most of the refits to existing housings are being done by local authorized Nauticam service departments. I would check with your dealer for details and cost as it may vary depending on your area and the type of valve you chose.

In that case, Vivid's Leak Sentinel V3 might be a better choice if you have a free port. I have read lots of good things about it.

I've just got the Leak Sentinel V3 installed on my NA-NEX7. Looks well built, easy to install and land test ran perfectly. I will take it out to sea for a test in a fortnight.

Yes, the existing NA-NEX7 detects water. The Leak Sentinel detects a drop a pressure, which will come much earlier than water detection. I did have a catastrophic leak a year back, so I'm keen for any early detection feature
