Hi,

Some time ago I sent my Sub Sea Systems display back for repair, after have had it flooded. Does anyone at Rebreather World know how to get in contact with Jason other than via mail, since my mails have been unanswered for a long time now? I really miss my display, and am planning on going diving soon, witk my CK.

Hi Håkan,

just out of curiosity, how did you flood it? Isn't everything potted?
This is what they say on their website:

"All our Connector Blocks, HUD's, Kidneys etc are fully potted. There is no chance of water intrusion whatever the depth."

Was it through the calibration access port?

I guess no electronic in water is ever completely safe...

Regards,
Henrik

Hi Henrik,

No, no electronic in water is ever safe.

The displayunit flooded due to my stupidity. I had replaced the strap to bungycords. In order to do so I undid the screws holding the two small brackets to the backside of the housing of the display. After assemblying the four screws I neglected to apply threadsealant on the screws. On the second dive (I believe) after this, the back panel/ lid was just enough loose to let some salty Atlantic Ocean water in. The display unit went dead, I went OC and aborted the dive. Luckily I had my original displays along with me, so only one dive was affected.

But I do miss the bigger display/ numbers wich are a bit clearer to read than the original displays.

Hi Guys,
Sorry, I can at times be hard to get hold of. I am away from the office from time to time as I travel a bit, sometimes work, sometimes play. When I'm at sea there's generally no internet access.

Thanks,
Jason.
