Prism Topaz - Analog Secondary & Cell Sensors
Most Prism Topaz owners know that the Analog Secondary is delicate, and carry the secondary in some type of protective packing during travel from the home to diving in the water. I carry mine in a small Pelican box with foam around it. I have been told that during transport it’s best to keep the Secondary Dial Knob on a sensor (either 1,2 or 3) so that the needle is reading Air (0.21), so that if the secondary gets banged or knocked hard, the jewels attached to the needle movement would stand a better chance of not getting damaged as opposed to the needle sitting at zero. The question I have is this: during storage, when the rebreather is put away and not being used, is it best to leave the Analog Secondary on sensor 1,2, or 3? It seems to me that this puts a load (current drain) on the Sensor chosen. I would think that it would be better to put the Analog Secondary on “Set Point” during storage so that there is no load on any of the Sensors.
