Cambridge GPS-Nav Model 20

What type of battery is inside the Model 20. I need to change mine
and I understand it is behind the antenna and can be replaced without
breaking the recorder seal.

Thanks,
Fred

From Gary @ CAI:

We replace with a Panasonic CR-2330 (3v). A 2325 is also okay to use...its a
little thinner, but was the original one used in your unit. The 2330's last
longer. KEEP THE UNIT POWERED WHEN YOU REPLACE IT SO YOU DO NOT LOSE
SECURIY!!

What needs to be done if you do "LOSE SECURITY"? I know that this has
happened
to a couple of members in our club when they replaced the battery.

A dozen calls to CAI with no answer this week, no message....
Maybe those of us with instruments currently in for repair need to
look elsewhere?

I had no problem reaching Gary @ CAI last week by phone as well as
correspondence with a few follow-up emails.

This might help, they just worked on my 302 (lose needle).

I don't know all the politics involved, but I found them thru
Cambridge old number, which I believe has now been discontinued. They
replaced a 302 dislocated needle and re-secured the unit , mid January
08. Last year, they overhauled and re-certified my back-up M-25
datalogger. All of this was done at a very fair price and very quick
turn around.

That is interesting to hear. I got my 302 back from them about two or
three weeks ago. I had sent it in for calibration and testing a while
back and never heard back from them. I finally decided to send Gary an
email to find out the status. He responded right away stating that it
was complete and that they were trying to contact me to resolve the
shipping charges to send it back. I had no problems with that, and I
immediately called to give them the billing info they needed. While I
was on the phone, I mentioned (politely) that no one from their
company had tried to contact me. For whatever reason, this person on
the phone (not Gary) became rather abrupt with an unflattering "tone
of voice". I had given them three different phone numbers along with
all my other contact info. I never received a call or a message from
them on any of the three phone numbers I provided. Yet this person
insisted calls were made. At the end of the call, I never got a "thank
you for your business" or a "we apologize for the miscommunication",
let alone a "good bye". This person just hung up the phone. I didn't
think much of it at the time since my 302 was on it's way back home,
but now that you're mentioning this here, I'm wondering if they're
having personel problems. To be honest, it wouldn't be the worst thing
if they replaced the person I had to deal with. It was certainly not
what I would call good customer relations.

I'm thankful Gary was the one doing the technical work and not the
person I spoke to.

Gary is usually very good with returning calls and e-mail.
Received e-mail from him on Friday, but this week the phone just
rings.

I also sent in my 302 for calibration. Heard nothing and finally called
to find out that they "CLAIMED" they had tried to call me. They were
also waiting to return the unit.

You guys must have ****ed off the mule, cuz it was pulling just fine
when it was my turn to plow. I guess my life is on the other side of
the mirror.
