Suunto stinger
Stupid question time, but i have a battery symbol that keeps appearing near the date display on the stinger and then disappears for a bit. Is this time for battery replacment and if so anybody any good spots to get it replaced at a good price.
Cheers Lee

If you go to EAN setting and wait a few seconds, you will see how full the battery is by the number of black bars around the left hand side (between 6 oclock and 12 oclock) If there are fewer than 4 bars, get a new battery.

Sending it to Suunto isn't cheap (£40 or £50 I think) but they fix it and send it back by return of post.

The staff there are really helpful if you phone them:

Ditto to the above, if its a bit iffy at room temperature then as soon as you get in the water, it gets a bit cold and has to start doing all its calculations and memory stuff then in will probably die, well thats what mine did anyway.

And another ditto as above, mine had 3 bars of battery left at home and I jumped in Chepstow last January 6 degrees and it died. Do it now.
