I test my cells before and after every dive and replace any that show signs of failure - dont care how old the cell is - if it works it works

ususually, thankfuly, this means i end up replacing one at a time. Id feel very unhappy if i had to change all 3 cells at once, 2 is ok as i have a 3rd to compare against but 3 new ones offers no protection against batch errors

Same as what I do though I'm fighting the urge to change one of my cells as it's not far off 2yrs old. However, it reads bang on both at the start and end of the dive.

I also tend to stagger when I buy cells (unless I need two at once), I try to avoid buying more than one at a time if they aren't for immediate use.
