    I was wondering if anyone had any experience with a low battery first
    showing itself by displaying lower speed.

    My bike computer works OK, but it reads much slower speed, and intermittent.

    It doesn't seem to be the contacts, and the pickup is still in the right
    spot.

    My old Cateye Micro computers always read low when the battery gets
    week. The computer starts missing pulses from the reed switch. You can
    tell because it will usually indicate 1/2 of the actual speed, meaning
    that it's only seeing every other pulse. No big deal; a new battery
    fixes it every time.
