Hello Joe

The "bug" is that you loose the used stack time, when removing the battery. We talked earlier about it. I tried to use the stack timer as scrubber duration monitor and set it to 180 minutes. After a 60 minutes long dive it displayed the used and left time correctly (60 used, 120 left), but removing the battery between two dives will "reset" the used stack timer to zero. The work around is to set the stack timer to 120 for the next dive. I'm lasy, so I still calculate the remaining scrubber duration time in my logbook.

No I remember exactly as you said..
Here is KJ's logic:

It is assumed many divers are going to change their batteries when they do a scrubber change, so that its automatically reset to the saved state and the diver wouldnt forget to reset it..

I think a forced go to sleep (like on the primary) would be useful on the secondary now that there is some type of volitile data that could be used.
