The battery lasts for a couple of years. I though it went kaput yesterday when it it was flashing the kph symbol and nothing else. I put new battery in and reset it and now it is running again. The GPS units are far more accurate but then again I only get about 10 hours without an external battery pack so the ultra long rides are a bit of a pain<BR/><BR/>PeterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18306646.post-72540797259026110642008-06-20T04:06:00.000+08:002008-06-20T04:06:00.000+08:00Ah, I see!I hope it works out.Good luck and have f...Ah, I see!<BR/><BR/>I hope it works out.<BR/>Good luck and have fun, Paul!-benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05192310743432432356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18306646.post-64403998386364539332008-06-20T03:47:00.000+08:002008-06-20T03:47:00.000+08:00Hi Ben,thanks for your help.

I have contacted the people at ChainReactionBicycles, we will see what they still have.<BR/><BR/>The good thing about paragliding is that you do not have to ask for the certification of your instrumentation as long as you are able to follow the air traffic rules (at least here in Germany). Before I spend another 200 to 300 bucks on a standard paragliding altimeter the Cateye will do it. When you pilot a glider, which is classified as a "real" plane the situation is of course a different one.<BR/><BR/>Again, many thanks,<BR/><BR/>PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18306646.post-38618289626747381552008-06-19T08:57:00.000+08:002008-06-19T08:57:00.000+08:00Hi Paul,'Wanted to direct you here, but it appears...Hi Paul,<BR/><BR/>'Wanted to direct you <A HREF="http://www.cateye.com/store/parts.php?cid=1_10" REL="nofollow">here</A>, but it appears that they no longer carry it. Your best bet is probably to call your favorite LBS and get them to track one down for you, or call around. I do recall seeing one hanging from the rack at the Foothill branch of <A HREF="http://www.chainreaction.com" REL="nofollow">Chain Reaction Bicycles</A> years ago. Try eBay too, if you feel lucky.<BR/><BR/>That said, the Cateye CC-AT100 is not certified for paragliding though. You may want to check with your instructor on that.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Cheers,-benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05192310743432432356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18306646.post-50556591741811059652008-06-19T03:54:00.000+08:002008-06-19T03:54:00.000+08:00Hi, I have an older and absolutely reliable AT 100...Hi, I have an older and absolutely reliable AT 100 and because of its altimeter feature I would like to use it for paragliding.

That's really strange. I wonder if it is software-based or a faulty barometer sensor. Someone at QC is probably asleep and/or drunk on sake :-P<BR/><BR/>I wonder if it has to do with the battery though. You see, from experience, I discovered that the AT100 is an energy hog. Specifications state that the battery lasts half a year, but that's based on one hour of altitude measurement per day. I mean, that's not realistic. Who only rides 1 hour a day? I find myself replacing the battery every 2 to 3 months, or else a ride from Dairy Farm to Peter Chew's will record a couple thousand feet of elevation climbed.<BR/><BR/><I>No alt readings at all.

My original Cateye, the <A HREF="http://www.bikepro.com/products/computers/arch_cateye.shtml" REL="nofollow">ATC</A>, is somewhere in the undergrowth along Woodcutter's Trail.
