I have an Oceanic VT3 and was wondering what others opinions are on using a hoseless air integrated computer? Some people from my local area are totally against it due to the possibility of loss of signal, battery death, etc. If you guys or gals have one do you use a redundant hosed depth and pressure gauge and if so why?
I'm using a VT3 going on three years now.
First of all, I really don't care what other divers think of my computer or of my gears. It's mine and I'll use it or not use it as I see fit.
Secondly, I don't use a backup gauge either. If the thing were to die on me during a dive, I'd simply terminate the dive and surface. I'm doing recreational diving and not exploring the Titanic.
