Hollis is recalling about 1,000 DG03 dive computers because they can display incorrect tank pressure readings when used with certain optional transmitters. This malfunction could lead a diver to unknowingly run out of air while underwater, posing a serious drowning risk. The recalled computers are round, black, about 2-1/2 inches in diameter, and were sold at authorized Hollis dealers from July 2011 through May 2013 for about $500. Two reports of malfunctions have been received, though no injuries have been reported.
The computer can provide an inaccurate air pressure reading, causing a diver to believe they have more air remaining in their tank than they actually do. This can lead to the diver depleting their air supply unexpectedly while submerged, resulting in drowning.
Consumers should stop using the recalled dive computers until the unit's operating system is upgraded to revision 1B. Consumers can download the upgrade from the firm's website or contact an authorized Hollis dealer for assistance.
