Battery replacement for Oceanic Veo 180Nx

So my computer battery died recently. It's an Oceanic Veo 180Nx, and I have some quick questions about replacing the battery.

1. The Scubatoys website lists battery kits for the Veo 100 and Veo 250, but not the 180. Will either of those work for my computer? The manual says I need a CR2450, but I couldn't tell which battery comes with those battery kits.

2. Do I need to get the entire battery kit (includes a new O-ring and silicone grease), or can I just buy a battery alone and re-use my existing O-ring?

The computer itself is probably 2-3 years old.

Not exactly the same, but...
I have an Aeris Atmos ai. I have replaced the battery twice in ~4 yrs. I have not replaced the o-ring. You can buy the batteries at any drug store.

I do plan on buying a couple of o-rings (1 for use and 1 for "stock") for the next time that I have to replace the battery.

ski,

Be careful with your o-ring. I put silicone on my fingers and pulled the o-ring through them to lubricate it. That must have stretched it enough to make it impossible to seal.

From replacing the o-ring on a Veo 100 I think the o-ring is a size 21 for the Veo's
