I've had a few low battery problems normally after having had the unit in storage for a while. On one occasion having fitted new batteries (i.e. the ones I had bought as spares but were still in the packet) I got a low battery warning. I set off for the shop for new batteries (a 10 minute walk) and by the time I got back the battery warning was cleared. I dived the unit (OK maybe not the wisest decision) with one hand on my bail out and had no issues and the unit dived fine the rest of the week. Water temperature about 9degC IIRC.

I'm beginning to wonder if the issue isn't in the cells but in the votlmeter.
