Our Review of the Suunto D3/Mosquito Replacement Battery
Replacement battery kit for Suunto D3 and Mosquito.
Includes: Battery, O-Ring and new Cover.
Suunto Tip: HOW TO CHANGE A SUUNTO BATTERY
1. Insert a coin into the slot on the battery compartment cover on the backside of the Wristop (for the lrg. black covers, a NICKEL is the correct coin). NEVER USE A SCREWDRIVER. There are no threads!
2. Turn the coin counterclockwise just until it lines up with the circle marked "OPEN" alongside the cover.
3. Remove the cover. The cover will usually not pop out. Use a fingernail to pry it open but mind the O-ring. Ensure that the O ring and all surfaces are clean and dry. Do not stretch or puncture the O ring.
4. Remove the old battery carefully.
5. Place the new battery into the compartment (positive side facing up).
6. With the O ring in the correct position, replace the battery compartment cover and turn it clockwise with a coin just until it lines up with the "CLOSED" circle. DO NOT TURN PAST THIS POINT.

Service was great but it seems the price was a bit high as was the shipping.

Great replacement kit
Reviewer: Cliff Etzel , Eugene, OR
Date: November 11, 2007
Everything arrived quickly. I would have give 5 stars but this one issue kept me from doing that. My only caveat was that even though I had done everything correctly, the battery cap didn't come off like I thought it should have. I had to call my local dive shop which is a Suunto retailer to find out you have to gently pry off the batter door as it is locked on with the o-ring seal after the maybe 1/8 turn. For those who aren't aware of this, it might lead to some damage to their D3. Other than that - I have no complaints - I'm now freediving with it again and that's all that matters.

suuntoD3/Moasquito battery kit.
Reviewer: Francis Bollag , New Rochelle, NY

First of all the service from your factory customer service unit was flawless, I received the kit within 2 days of ordering. I have a few suggestions, however.
It would be nice if the kit was offered as door & o-ring only w/o the battery so I could buy it early & have it ready in the save a dive kit without regard to the shelf life of the battery itself. Alternatively you could offer it with 2 o-rings planning for the next change in one purchase. The second idea is to market it with a replacement face protector, or put a reminder on your net site "consider ordering a new face protector now & save with the combined shipping" I'm still kicking myself for not buying the face protector
at the same time.
Lastly, a rant---why can't dealers keep these small parts in stock as a service to their Suunto customers? For a tiny investment in inventory they can greatly improve their service to their image as full service dive shops.

Replacement battery kit for Suunto D3 and Mosquito
Reviewer: Anonymous , Brandon, MS.

It sure would be a shame to have run out and find a Suunto dealer on you vacation if you need a battery change on your dive computer, Suunto has the best idea I've seen, easy step by step directions and all the hardware needed, even a new cover to ensure a proper seal. All you need is a coin. I carry one in my save a dive kit. A must in my opinion. Thanks Suunto!

Mosquito battery
Reviewer: Anonymous , NJ
Date: July 31, 2006
Besides dive logging features of the Mosquito dive computer, being able to replace the battery at home is a plus. Getting the battery with o-ring and new cover ensures that key parts are all uptodate and gives me the confidence that the computer will work on my next dive. All items delivered as indicated on the website and everything worked as expected.
