Some manufacturers also warn of possible loss of signal if using scooters (DPV for those who don't know what scooters are).

I just spoke to the tech department at Scuba Pro. Evidently using their web site is not the best way to contact them. I was told that yes indeed it is a problem with all of their AI computers and the user's guide makes no mention of the problem. Scuba Pro told me to take it back to the dealer for a full refund. Hmmm what to do, I already have an SPG coming from Leisure World.
Like I implied, I think it sucks you were caught off-guard by the interference issue. But, if you're already willing to use a non-AI computer, and the dealer you bought it from would be willing to refund you the full amount for the Luna. Then maybe they would also be willing to refund you the amount for the difference between a Luna with the wireless transmitter and one without. Consider keeping the Luna, the Luna and the Sol really are some good computers.Does anyone have a dive computer they love? Suggestions?

It seems as though some other computers do the same thing. But and that is a big but, not as bad as the Luna. Mine does not recover in a matters of seconds it can be minutes as I suspect every time I take a picture the transmitter is affected each time.
So due to that signal loss I never get my 750 PSI or my 500 PSI audible warnings. I guess it is easy just to say that signal loss is normal and we should expect and accept that. Personally it is not acceptable. Would you use a PSI gauge if it only gave you a read periodically? Of course none of us would. So why excuse hose less computers? Why should we accept a product that does not fully work regardless of the brand? It also would have been nice to have some warnings with the Luna owners guide and possibly even the camera manual. This is an expensive computer and I would not recommend anyone to waste their money buying it if you ever plan to take pictures. I am going to put a new face plate on it and will put it up for auction on ebay. What a waste.
