Really...GUE has tables...when did those come out?Karl_in_Calif once bubbled...
Or worse, a 5 ft hose AND GUE dive tables, while confiscating the battery-less computer, and signing him/her up for a DIRF course.
What to do when a computer battery dies

from here. Metric and Swedish versions are also on the website.

On the off chance that someone may really want an answer - it really kind of depends on the computer.
Some do not have user replaceable batteries and some of those no longer have factory or dealer support. It's great to have a large factory replaceable battery in the thing that lasts 7 to 13 years of "normal diving" but not when it dies the year after the company quits supporting them.
My preference based on past experience is to stick with computers that use comonly availabel watch batteries that can be bought at Wal-mart. I then change them at the beginning of the season and at mid season whether they need it or not.
My latest computer is pretty cool though as it allows several seconds to change batteries without losing the N2 or O2 loading data so changing in the middle of a diving day is a possibility.
