Vyper new style console

Warren_L · Mar 20, 2003

Hi everyone, I've been looking online at the vyper new style console, but cannot figure out if it can be taken out and wrist mounted like the regular wrist version. The module looks identical, but is connected to the pressure guage. Was also wondering if a compass could be added as well. Anyone seen this before?

I've seen very little on the vyper console ... even checked the suunto site, but cannot seem to find any info on it. Does that mean the vyper console version uses an hp hose?

The console version is not connected to a HP hose. No way for it to be. Its the same module as the wrist unit. Just add the straps and the boot. The SUunto console is a modular system with a pressure gauge, the computer, and then a compass. Each piece is only connected to the boot, not to each other. The HP hose goes to the pressure guage.

That gives you a good pic of the wrist, and the console version. See, no HP hose connected to the vyper. Only to the PG. GOod luck...

Thanks for the info. You're the king! That's what I was trying to find out. I searched around the suunto site but could not find anything, unless I completely missed it somehow. I even call leisurepro but the guy there couldn't answer my question.

Yes and yes.

I first added the compass to the top of the console, which made it a bit long for my taste. $45 from DiveInn.

I then bought the boot, straps and pins from a LDS and took the Vyper out of the console and wrist mounted it. $14

This left the SPG and compass in a shorter console.

Then I found the compass that mounts on the back of the SPG at DiveInn for $45. ebay'd the old compass for $56.

The modular system works quite well.
