One flood was due to user stupidity, another I'm not sure of the cause but may have been the black back, the 1st one which was due to a crack in the clear plastic which was then replaced under warranty.
Ditto- exactly in fact! Jetsam replaced the entire set though- you've gotta hand it to them their service is superb and I believe the product is improving all the time too.

I suspect the "counting error", where the display shows an incrementing number is due to moisture on the board. If you have to re-cal when the display is wet then no matter how well you try to dry it I suspect some moisture can be sucked in when the cal port is opened.
Yup, although when I got this error it was after I had taken my displays diving with the water cooling feature enabled (ie- inexplicable flood
)

Do you know how you replace the battery on the Shearwater?
I'm reliabley informed it requires you to remove the front cover... slightly alarming but then allegedly you'll only need to do it every 2years or more! It would seem to rely on a conventional compression o-ring too, unlike the slightly less conventional design of the Jetsam displays.
