I am kinda leaning to having the cypress taken out when I get a repack and inspection, before I sell the rig. The prospective buyer will then have a choice on which way he/she wants to go.

I too have a question about the batteries. I am planning on selling my gear and have gone past the two year window to change batteries. The gear has been in storage and today I turned on the cypress. The battery voltage is 6.19. Does anyone know the proper operating voltage of the cypress 1? Or what the operating range is? It would seem like a waste to change out the batteries if I haven't used the unit and the voltages are in operating range. I would welcome any advise. Thanks

The varied opinions here express what works for some doesn't work for others. I had a Sabre 190 and moved down to a 170. I used to roll the end cells into the center and it made for soft openings, that all changed when I had a malfunction caused by one side failing to pop out of the center. It seemed the fabric got stuck on itself somehow. There is so much more than what you do with the nose that effects openings . I have found that keeping the slider in a position to do it's job as the biggest factor. Snatch force, line stows and proper maintenence all come into play also. You are going to hear tips from everyone. If you have a problem of any kind call the manufacturer, they usually are in the best position to clear up the problem.
