.... I put my Cateye Mity 8 through a full 90 degree washing machine cycle this evening. Not knowingly I hasten to add. It's no longer working. It was in a pair of cargo shorts that I was washing which got some grease on them . I thought they are making a funny noise as they do loop the loop inside, it must be the buttons or zip against the metal drum, not realising I had left the computer in one of the pockets which had quickly fallen out .
So a quick innernet search has revealed nothing. They is no longer available AFAICS. There is however the Enduro 8 which looks similar. Does anyone know if this has the same mount as the Mity 8 as I don't want to have to change all the mounts?
I had this now dead Mity 8 just under 2 years quite the longest time for me as normally I lose them in less than a year so have to buy a replacement or two. I have had about 10 in 10 years as I keep losing them.
Btw the cargo shorts came out spotless sans grease. The computer is now drying out with the battery removed. There are a few small drops of water on the inside of the screen. I am not hopeful that it will ever work again. It's been well and truly drowned.
