Time out Problems

Recommended Posts

I have a most likely very old Time Out. Paid all of $30 for it. The problem I have is that it tends to go off at 4500 ft (where I set it) on one jump and 4,000 the next? Once it didnt go off until 3500. It's not really a big deal as it's only a safety check for me. I always watch my altimeter like a hawk under about 7,000. Anybody know what might fix this?

lol... sell ya a real nice Phantom 20' cheap... then you can sell that Swift and buy a ProTrack with the proceeds!
Okay, real answer... have you tried changing the battery? Is there any possibility that the adjust buttons are being pushed without you knowing it??
pull and flare,

Ummm...I havent changed the battery recently (6 mos or so)but I am using Lithium in it. They should last a long long time. It was doing it some even with a brand new battery. I think I will try changing it again. It's mounted on the flat portion of a Gen-X FF helmet so I doubt the buttons are getting pushed.
P.S. I weigh 190 without gear. I would die under a 20' round. I alos swore to myself I would never jump another round after I left the Air Force in December....LOL
