    I’ve just received my KTi PLB with replacement battery, from Battery Masta, Christchurch.
    $115 all up, with a 5-year warranty battery reminder. Many thanks to Gavin and the good service.
    Yes, I appreciate there are some arguments vs a new unit, new technology, and 11 year battery etc, but this solution suits my needs and situation.

    That makes it a viable proposition. 5 yrs from now they might have all caught up on the cell phone side of communications

    I would take that to mean labour or inspection?

    Labour + inspection, plus cleaning of seal contact areas and anything else that needs it so they tell me.
