So I had been shopping over the last couple of weeks to get a complete set of gear together for me and my step dad so we don't have to rent equipment that often.
One of the steals that I got was an Oceanic Prodigy Imperial Dive computer which had 4 dives logged on it with a ton of other stuff including fins, bag, tusa mask, boots, 2 gauges with compass and one set of 1st and 2nd stage regulator.
Since the Oceanic is not nitrox capable and we plan on diving with nitrox while in FL we got some Dacor Darwins the other day.
I did replace the battery in Prodigy and regreased the o-ring and took it diving with me at the local quarry, works like a charm and has the same info as the other computers that we were using that day.
Question now is:
Should I keep the Prodigy as a backup air computer incase the Dacor Darwin fails me (doubt it) or gets somehow lost damaged while underwater?
I would need to buy a wrist or hose boot to get the thing mounted to the gear somehow. I did have it with me inside the BCD pocket which was velcroed closed.
What does everyone think?
