clear enough for me...and I dont even dive a meg.....Gilles, who does, apears a little less clear though

as in his reply hes clearly implying it could be the cause of this incident of the handset turning of during the dive - suggesting therefore that the fault may not be obviuous pre dive......perhaps hes not clear

I've never had the reed fall out during a dive, but it does come out sometimes during battery dis-assembly. I felt it could've been the cause of Patrick's problems.

I'm not very defensive about Meg. She's not perfect, and has some faults. IMO the sensor carriage design, unprotected leads to sensors, and kinda heavy.

Other than that, I dunno if there's another breather that woulda survived me for the last 2 years without any factory repair. Mine still works, but it's becoming time now for an upgrade and repairs. I don't think it could survive another plane ride in a soft bag.
