 Re: CCR Handsets Slightly Worried !! via ScubaMonster.com <forum@ScubaMonster.com> wrote: > Has anybody out there had any problems with Insperation handsets not powering up - failing underwater?? If the magnets are getting gunged up sometimes they don't start (face plate off - toothbrush) and failing when you roll in is normally battery bounce (go slightly sideways or put tape round the batteries). On at least one occasion I hooked a handset on something and flipped the switch neatly to off. nigelH  |
