I note on the Mares internet site the availability of their new divecomputer, the NEMO.
Has anybody tried this new dive computer?
I am researching the market for a divecomputer (must have user replaceable batteries and latest in algorithms i.e. RGMB) which narrows the field down to SUUNTO and Mares - any advice.
Technically, the Suunto algorithm isn't a true RGBM like the Mares. Use the search function at the top of the page and you'll find more than you probably cared to read (use 'Suunto RGBM' as keywords). I don't know if you are absolute on the RGBM or not, but the Oceanic Atom will be a really nice divewatch/computer when it comes out in the spring. It is an AI wireless watch-sized computer capable of using up to 3 gases via separate wireless transmitters. Gauge, nitrox to 50% and air are supported modes. Here's the info:
Unfortunatley I don't think that Oceanic uses a RGBM algotithym for it's calculations. There is no mention of that on the page you referenced.
The instructions for a Versa Pro I had said thier algorithym was based on dives to 90 feet. Below that it seems to be based on Navy tables with some conservatism added.
Rice once bubbled... Unfortunatley I don't think that Oceanic uses a RGBM algotithym for it's calculations. There is no mention of that on the page you referenced.

Yep. It's not an RGBM, modified or otherwise.. That's why I said 'I don't know if you are absolute on the RGBM or not, but...'. Guess I should have spelled it out specifically or used some boldface for you?
I believe that the Oceanic is a a modified Haldanian model.
I was wondering, I am looking for a new wrist dive computer and I read about the new Mares Nemo. Looks good and seems to have good specs.
Can anyone tell me more.
