Hi everyone,
so,
here i come with an old doubt...
Many years ago (when i and mostly nobody had internet yet), i became greatly disappointed and frustrated, when i knew that my Aqualung Monitor 2 stopped working, and, when i took it to replace the battery, the guy in the store, (as a matter of fact the portuguese brand representative at the time
), told me that nobody would make the battery change and that there were no alternatives to it as that computer was allready out of the market, that there would be necessary a special not made anymore battery and after that a special density gel to insulate the battery from water, so the only left option was to buy a new computer :naughty (this was then told to me and to many other portuguese users, and the majority of us believed and found no easy or possible way of solving the problem)...
...i never bought the new one...
Now, i was visiting some diving equipment and noted in the Scubaland, that there was a battery there that was calling my attention... i went on my old Monitor 2 and... damn, it was really the same battery i`m almost sure as i then searched other sources to confirm it, it`s even from uwatec and equal to the one in my Monitor2 (yes i just took it out of the gel in the computer tonight to watch it better so as to compare with the one in the site...)
Does anyone know where i can find or how to make the referred gel?
I know now of some places replacing the batts in USA, but i`m in Europe and ti will be too costly to send it to repair overseas...
Thanks in advance to any help
