If you bought a Scubapro Galileo Luna or Galileo Sol Dive Computer in the past year, you may want to check the serial number.
Scubapro recently announced that the company was recalling certain 2015 models of its Galileo Luna and Galileo Sol Dive Computers sold between May 2015 and January 2016. The reason, according to a U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announcement:
“A short circuit allows the dive computer’s screen to freeze or display inaccurate information, posing a risk of serious injury to a diver underwater, including decompression sickness.”
While no injuries as of the February 2 CPSC announcement had been reported, the commission said Scubapro had “received three reports of the dive computer screens freezing.”
To find out whether you’ll be eligible for a free replacement dive computer, check the back of your Luna for a serial number between 150422 0058 001 and 150903 0338 005.
For the Sol, check for the serial numbers 150423 0202 001 to 150921 0001 005.
For more info, call Scubapro at +1-800-790-3757 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. U.S. Pacific time Monday through Friday or check out the CPSC announcement at http://www.scubapro.com/media/502420/cpsc_joint_release.pdf.
