Hi everyone! I know there are always discussions on this matter, I just dont seem to find my answers on other threads. I currently use a suunto cobra 3, been using it for the past 10 years or so. I think it is time to make a change into something less conservative and I am also looking into a backup computer (diving with both of them) and I would really appreciate your help.
so I would like your opinion on this ideas.
1) getting an Oceanic pp4 (I think this one might be close to the shearwater algorithm when using the less conservative one) in a hose and a shearwater perdix AI on my wrist/strobe arm
2) using 2 AI computers one on my wrist another on my camera strobe arm, although I don't know if the transmitters can interfere
I chose those computers also because I think its better to use user changeable batteries than rechargeable ones, in my experience they start to lose battery power over time and changinG one battery is faster Than charging one.
what are your recommendation? I think is a good idea to get the to computers with the same algorithm but sometimes you dont find the exact same one unless is the same brand.
is going hoseless a good idea? Or is it playing it safe to keep one in there?
or in your experience what would be the best combination of two computers? I normally dive with my camera and use a wrist computer with no AI on the strobe arm, but now I am getting into liveaboards and I think is a good idea to dive with two computers with AI just in case one fails on the trip.
sorry for my english sometimes I don't know if I write things correctly, thank you for your help!!
