Unit back from repair

iani · 9th October 2006, 18:36

My Boris came home today, it has had the following:

Centre section electronics re-potted after board swap
New dome
New hose ends
New OPV
Exhale C/L patched
Inhale C/L replaced (original damaged in factory)

Fingers crossed I'll get a dry dive now

Good luck or else

So, pretty much a whole new unit, then! Good to hear that you've finally got Boris back again - trip to Norway next Summer, then?

Not for me thanks, I've already signed up for a week out of Plymouth and don't have any other time. Unfortunately my new job has less holiday time than my current one

How long did it take from the time the unit arrived for repair until it left the manufacturer?

They only had the unit for 5 days, this included a day of the unit being tested on a 50m dive for 75 mins.

Glad you got it back Ian - 5 days is quite good too.

Fingers crossed it's all good now...

Yes, that is a good turn time.

Dear Ian
What does the new OPV look like?
Cheers Frankie

It's the same as the old one but with the larger plate. Kev is working on a possible new design, I'm hoping to find out more on Saturday.
