I recently went on a dive trip to Malaysia and noticed something strange with my computer. After each flight, my computer showed one bar of nitrogen loading. I can't think of any reason this would happen. What's up with that?
 
It is nothing strange; the Duo is a live computer. It tracks pressure all the time. It is reading some nitrogen loading because as you went to altitude the pressure on it was reduced and it calculated you were off-gassing. Upon landing the pressure (although back to normal) was greater than it had been and it is calculating that you have on-gassed. This is normal. I have seen it on my Plus every time we go to DEMA in Vegas; especially if we go hiking up in the mountains.
