Thanks everyone for all the advice! I'll update in a couple weeks after I get back from Belize to let everyone know what I think.... and hopefully post some pics of the dives.
Oh okay! Yeah I've clicked around their 'Used Equipment' link... it's actually where the Mares Icon caught my eye and what spawned my initial question on this thread. I haven't checked out their forum though.
Well it hasn't been entirely on features, but one feature I really want is the air integration. I've checked out a lot of YouTube videos to get a good idea on the size of each computer, readability of the screen underwater, and ease with the buttons. I'm pretty good at figuring out gadgets, but...
Either way, I would hardly consider myself an experienced diver. As probably most of you have guessed, this will be my first computer I've ever owned. Either I've had to rent them or buddy up with someone who has one. I'm actually leaning towards the Cobalt for two main reasons: (1) I usually...
I checked out the Lynx and it's definitely over my budget! I wish I could dive with all that bad-assery! Then again, I'm not a seasoned diver either and the equipment is only as good as its user. The price on the Luna isn't so bad, but it's something I would have to try on in person before I...
Thanks... add a little more salt! :mooner: I keep trying to find a used Cobalt, but my search is coming up pretty empty. I just bought a Halcyon BC, Air 2, and Pinnacle wetsuit so my bank account is screaming at me right now. I didnt plan on getting the Halcyon, but a friend swore by it. So I...
I know, right!? I wish I had the financial means to dive with two badass computers! I checked out the Sol and it's seems like a solid piece of equipment, but price-wise it's a little over my budget. Originally, I was interested in the Icon. It was in my price range, seemed to include all the...
Adam, well perhaps I am naive :blinking: but doesn't mean I lack the responsibility to ask questions regarding equipment I've never used and plan on purchasing in the future. If I chose to dive with a wireless, I wouldn't dive without a backup SPG. I just don't see the reason to purchase a...
Thanks guys! Yea I figured the Mares may have some issues. My main concern with with the hoseless computer is losing link with the transmitter. Just seems the whole point of integrating depth gauge and tank pressure is to lose excess hoses.... but what's the point if you need a backup pressure...
Hi guys! I was hoping someone could help me choose between an Atomic Cobalt and Mares Icon HD. I've been reading reviews on the Atomic and it seems the opinions are mixed. Some love it and some have said that it's difficult hard to hear the warnings underwater. As for the Mares Icon, I haven't...
