Teric bungee adapter question.

[lamby66]

Hello all,
I came across this Suunto bungee adapter kit
Amazon.com: Suunto EON Core Bungee Adapter Kit: Sports & Outdoors

for their EON computers. has anyone upgraded from an EON to a Teric that would be able to tell me if this kit would work for the TERIC as well?

I would much prefer to have a redundant bungee system then a band, especially if I can add a barrel cold lock for adjustment (like I do with my perdix).

Any help would be appreciated

I've not seen anyone use a bungee mount with a watch. The Core is a small brick

what he said ^ - the Teric is big round watch sized - the Core like a skinny paperback.

If anything maybe one of the SK compass mounts might be able to be modified to work.

I've never seen one but a mount for a Zoop might be about the right size.

After Deep Sea Supply finishes relocating maybe Tobin will offer one - they sell several for other round oversized compasses/computers.

I ask because they both use 22mm watch bands.i know the eon is a TON bigger, but want to be able to put it on with dry gloves on, and the current band is not very friendly for this.

For other computers people will cut the straps short, make holes in the remaining bit and then thread the bungee through.

Rather defeats the point of a watch style computer though. I suspect the bungee adaptor is called a Perdix.

Given that the Teric uses screw bars to hold the straps in place, you could remove the straps and use the bars to hold loops of bungee in place. This is what I do (and have done for several years) with my Oceanic Geo 2.0. It's not pretty but it works.

I put on my watch computer before I put my dry gloves on...

I think I need to change the way I do my gloves. This would solve a bunch of problems. I have dui zip gloves so they are attached :-(
