Direct from the horses mouth Colin Said, "digital electronics are "flakey" at best, we will be replacing the digital system with an analog one"

It's a green flash, if the electronics hang, then flashing will stop, you'll know.

again, according to Colin, the backlight sucks juice and will significantly deplete the battery,
Everything is relative. 180 hours BL on, 700 with it off. Hardly something to whinge about.

this is however a bad thing for the oxygen side, with 200 bar on the manual inject valve, how much oxygen do you think is going to flow into the rig when one hits the button at depth....
Never dived a schraeder add valve Ron? Yes, the flow will be higher, but it can be controlled, and at least you have the ability to try. Your idea has all your O2 on it's way to the surface.

You can also turn it on with the button.
