Buying a Petrel 2 or Perdix

[jhnmdahl]

It never occurred to me that the Petrel/Perdix doesn't have a wet sensor as some other computers do.

It uses barometric pressure instead, and turns on automatically when the pressure reaches greater than a reasonable atmospheric pressure (1100mbar, I think).

Yes, apparently.

I want to thank everyone for there response. Bought the Perdix and have been diving it for about 3 months and let me tell you I'm not disappointed at all.

Welcome to the cult. You won't need to buy another computer ... unless you want another shearwater as a backup to your current one lol.
