BATTERY LIFE
The DataPlus' battery consumption rate varies throughout periods of operation,
which begin upon activation and continue for 24 hours after surfacing from a
dive. For this reason, the number of dives that you will obtain with a set of
batteries is subject to the number conducted during each activation period.
Other variables such as the climate and the type and age of batteries actually
used will also affect the number of dives possible.
Tests and calculations indicate that a set of lithium cells will maintain unit
operation for approximately 50 activation periods of 24 hours. Therefore, you
could expect to obtain (Fig. 72) from 50 dives (if only 1 dive is conducted each
time the unit is activated) to over 150 dives (if 3 dives are conducted each time
the unit is activated).
