I wish that SP would dump the BIO BS. Useless unwanted rubbish feature that just serves to cloud a really nice device.
 
It's probably built into the chipset by now: every garmin fitbit eyewatch has one. Might as well call it a feature and charge for it.

I don’t care about the hardware. BFD. SP has baked some alchemy based on your heartrate into the deco algorithm. Nuts to that.

As the father of nitrox put it, science will always rule over BS. An increased heartrate is an important measure of increased workload resulting in more on gassing of nitrogen.

I set my G2 on the brightest setting with it always on.

OK. I’m a scientist. Show me the science. Papers welcome showing the the relationship and how it has been implemented by SP.
 
since the belt is optional, whatever bs they baked in is optional as well: don't connect the belt and it should fall back to the straightforward whatever bubble science they baked in.

In addition, set the microbubble level at zero, turn off PDIS, and you should be diving the native algorithm, Buhlmann ZH-L16 ADT. You might also have to set the air consumption setting to -12.

The G2 was tested as part of the 2017 ScubaLab dive computer review. They state they test at the "most liberal settings". The G2 came in at the conservative end of the spectrum, most conservative at some timepoints. The data from the 4 simulated hyperbaric chamber dives can be downloaded as an Excel spreadsheet from the Scuba Diving Magazine website 11 New Dive Computers Tested By ScubaLab In 2017

I would also like to hear more about Scubapro's Human Factor Diving. There is no discussion in the manual concerning how heart rate, skin temperature, and gas consumption are implemented and how they affect the decompression algorithm.

I suspect the HR and workload effects on the algorithm are based on some scientific data as they’ve been using this for several years now with the Galileo, and they could probably supply you with the study if you ask the right person. But in any case I like the idea of monitoring my HR while I dive. I do so when I exercise in other sports and it’s useful feedback and is being used by active people more and more.
