Re: New For VR3

From what I've discussed with Eric and this may have changed, the X1 is suppose to have some interface I'll call the dive computer bus. Don't have any specs other than it will be an interface to connect to external components. Seems to be a common factor looking at the VR3 and Shearwater w/ their "fischer" connectors.

One person was talking about a possible eCCR head that would interface with the X1 - the head would be a battery pack, O2 cells and solenoid and an interface to the X1. The X1 would read cells and fire solenoid using the external battery (pwr relay). Very interesting.....

I also heard that about the battery... sealed inside, non-replaceable but expected to last 40 years. I would be impressed if it lasts 10 years.
