Hi,
I am new to nitrox and have only had the class so far. I am looking at computers and trying to decide how important multi gas abilities are for recreation only diving. I would expect to go out on dives with the same gas for every dive but sometimes bad things can happen and that's the only time I would change gas.
I am wondering if thinking about getting stuck with air or a different mix on a second dive due to tanks getting mixed up or left behind is enough of a concern to base a computer purchase on if I only expect it to occur by something beyond my control. I know that each person is resposible for their own equipment but **** happens.
I am looking at that new Deepblu computer and it states
"Multi-Gas: COSMIQ does not offer a multi-gas function. Only one type of gas may be set (oxy-
gen 21%-40%). If you are planning a multi-gas dive, DO NOT use COSMIQ as your primary
device."
I might be over thinking possibilities and should plan to just do math or skip a second dive if I'm in such a situation.
Thanks for your input
