Shearwater Tern and Tern TX

[stuartv]

More accurately, the "trimix" capability.

More accurately, the Trimix capability, OC Tec mode, and CC/BO mode. Reasonably summarized as the “tec features”.

OC Tec -- with the constraint of no Trimix -- and 3-gas Nx are effectively the same to me. Who carries more than 3 gases unless they're doing Trimix? Nonetheless, nice catch on the CC/BO. You're right, it does lack the (full) "tec features" and only has the "light tec" features (Shearwater's characterization).

I received mine yesterday. I preordered a week ago through my local shop in Calgary. I have hardly had a chance to look at it yet - still has teh protector over the screen. Here is the link to the manual.

That is a very good manual! Perfect for the designated market, I think.

The tern is suppose to be released since a few days but I couldn’t find any unboxing or review on internet. Does someone put his hand on it and dive it to have a first impression?

Tern TX just arrived. Few quick snaps -

Compared to Teric -

Compared to Perdix (main reason for buying as my daughter didn’t like the Perdix size)

Will get a play with it over the next few days

Looks like they gave up on the fake display sticker that the Teric came with.

Any updates if it has a different battery than Teric?

Lame that they gave it a massive case.
