No problema. You send me a Clear Nav and I will send you a B40.

The B-400 is the replacement and just as good. I'm running a B-400 in
my Genesis. It can be set to give up only audio if you don't want a
constant noise coming at you all the time. I set my SN-10 for down
only audio with a wide range, so it only alerts me to heavy sink. The
B-400 only sounds off when we're going up and the rest of the time I
hear nothing. I try to keep the speed-to-fly centered and when one of
the audios comes on..........it means something!

I'll second that. I have been using a B400 this season as a back up to a
B500VE. I mute the sound but I can see the vario needles and also to the
green/red +20 second average/-20 second average in very close agreement.
The battery back up is 4 x AA batteries (I haven't had to use that
facility yet). I also have the separate averager display (LCD numerals).
Note that the 80mm instrumnet fits a 80mm hole but the actual diameter of
the instrument face is smaller than 80mm, say about 70mm.
