My point is......when the battery dies (mine died in December, only 3 months of purchasing it.....I guess it was old stock?), how do you prevent the odometer from reading "0000" again?
When you said "I only had to change a battery once, and it was NO PROBLEM", what does "NO PROBLEM" mean? Does it mean that you had no problem changing the battery or does it mean that after you changed the battery, the Astrale 8 retained all its data?
Forget "setting the odometer... " simply write down the distance at any critical time or the end of the year and don't worry about it... trying to get some cheap computer to memorize all your milage for you is a waste of time. They were never meant to be cycling "black boxes."
Think pen and ink and paper and relieve all your anxiety...
