Hey all,
I've been reading a lot of posts so far, and I've determined the following characteristics I'd want to have in my new computer:
- Nitrox (1 blend is fine, 2 gases would be better, but probably *way* more expensive)
- Liberal with a user adjustable safety margin
- Ideally no lock out
- Gauge Mode
- Backlight
- Wrist Mounted with no Air Integration (too expensive)
- Big face (not watch like)
- Audible Alarms would be a plus
- User Replacable Battery
- Possibility to download the logged dives to a PC
- Relatively Cheap (under 500$)
I've looked at the Suuntos (too conservative), Cochrans do not have a gauge mode, Uwatecs don't have the user replaceable battery... The only brands lefts are Diverite and Oceanic (and Oceanic-like, such as the Atmos), but I don't know much about them...
Any suggestions? :icosm02:
Thanks a bunch!
