Battery Life; Low Battery Condition - Sherwood Scuba Insight Manual Manual

BATTERY LIFE

Battery consumption rate varies throughout periods of operation, which begin upon activation and
continue for 24 hours after surfacing from a dive. The exact number of dives, or hours of operation,
that you will obtain is subject to variables, such as, temperature, the number of dives conducted during
each operational period, and the frequency and duration that the backlight is used (excessive use will
reduce battery life).
Tests and calculations indicate that a new CR2450 Lithium battery will maintain operation for ap-
proximately 300 hours or -

LOW BATTERY CONDITION

During operation, voltage level is checked every second while on the surface. You will be alerted to a
Low Battery condition by a flashing Battery symbol (Fig. 76a).

Upon decreasing to a voltage level that will not maintain proper unit operation, the symbol will flash
for 5 seconds followed by shutdown of the Insight.
If the Insight did not display the Low Battery symbol prior to entering the Dive mode, and a Low Bat-
tery condition occurs during a dive, there will be sufficient battery power to maintain unit operation

for the remainder of that dive, however the Backlight will be disabled. You will be alerted by the Bat-
