    Cressi Leonardo, no display after renewing battery

    Yeah, it was a Hail Mary pass, based on an earlier post. Anyway, it's all over now. No more Cressi. I LOVE MY SHEARWATER TERIC!

    Cressi Leonardo, no display after renewing battery

    So I just tossed my Cressi Leonardo into the garbage, and won’t ever buy another Cressi product again. Here’s the end of the story: Someone here had posted that doing a factory reset via the PC link interface would fix the problem. I finally found my Cressi cradle interface. It was difficult...

    Cressi Leonardo, no display after renewing battery

    Very interested in iimehl’s solution. Can you give more info on how you did this without seeing the screen? I tried this: Gave it a long press to turn it on (it beeps). Pressed the button five times to get into Gauge Mode (I think - can’t see the screen). After a few seconds, it gives a short...

    Cressi Leonardo, no display after renewing battery

    Same exact problem here. I already bought a Teric (which I love) but kept the Cressi in my pocket as a backup. Well, I guess I ain't got no need for this backup no more! What a crappy piece of equipment, that so many people have the exact same problem and Cressi doesn't even pretend to have a...

    Turtle Inn Experiences?

    Hi all! Does anyone have any recent reviews of Turtle Inn in Belize - specifically about the dive op, the underwater environment, etc.? It sounds like a wonderful place, but I haven’t been able to find anything that focuses on the dive experience. Thanks in advance!

    Olympus EM-1 Won’t Turn On

    Anyone else experiencing this? I’m shooting with an EM-1 Mark 1 in Nauticam housing, no problems until this year. On some dives, the camera simply won’t turn on - black screen, as if the battery is dead. But the battery is fully charged - and I always test the connections and everything else...

    MacDive & Shearwater: Can I Sync the Cloud Logs?

    Hi, all, looking for some guidance. I recently upgraded to. Shearwater Teric, and used the Shearwater Cloud app to sync the dives across my iPhone, iPad, and desktop Mac. I want to continue to use MacDive, which is my historical logbook. I want to load the edited dives from Shearwater Cloud...

    Trip Report Bonaire Trip Report 12/30-1/5/2019 Den Laman

    Although this is a rather late reply, I need to say this for the record: homerdoc’s daughter is the coolest kid I’ve ever met. One might reasonably expect any 14-year-old to be diffident, maybe sullen, not wanting to spend time with her parents. But this young lady was just a bundle of...

    Pictures of AI Transmitter Attachments

    Thanks to fantastic guidance from dozens of SBers, I purchased my first AI dive computer, the Shearwater Teric. It’d be incredibly valuable for me to see photos of how others have attached their transmitters - a short hose seems to be favored over directly connecting to the 1st stage, but I’d...

    PADI AOW Certification: A Really Dumb Question

    Efka76’s overall point is correct - getting more instruction and refreshers is better than not - but in my case mostly moot. I did not dive for about 12-13 of those years in the middle. From 1984-1994, I did about 20-25 dives a year, and from 2011-today it’s been about 40 dives a year. In the...

    PADI AOW Certification: A Really Dumb Question

    I’m almost looking at it as an excuse to do a long weekend trip into the sun and have fun and learn things. At least, that’s what you’re all persuading me!

    PADI AOW Certification: A Really Dumb Question

    Caruso, if you don’t do the e-learning review, does that mean you have to take a test in the dive shop? I loved the e part of my nitro certification a few years ago - it made it all easier. I’m just still unclear of what if anything gets tested in the AOW cert program.

    Aiyanar House Reef in Anilao

    Hi all - I’m planning a trip to Anilao in the spring, specifically for macro photography. We’ll be staying at Aiyanar, which sounds great, from the reviews here. Does anyone have specific thoughts on Aiyanar’s house reef as a photo and exploration site? I’ve been spoiled by my frequent trips to...

    EM-1X

    Hey Jim! I’ve been diving with an EM-1 in Nauticam housing pretty much since I met you a few years back. I recently upgraded to the EM-1 Mark II for topside photography. For my bird photography, it’s made a material difference; it’s got faster focusing, a faster shutter, and better high ISO...

    PADI AOW Certification: A Really Dumb Question

    Hi, all - here’s a stupidly basic question. Next month will mark my 35th anniversary of my PADI Open Water Certification. I never bothered to get AOW, and it never made a difference. I’ve been doing deep dives (100-120’), night dives, wreck dives almost from the beginning. Recently, some dive...

    Teric AI vs. Perdix AI?

    They hadn’t and that’s great to know - many thanks.

    Teric AI vs. Perdix AI?

    What fantastic and helpful responses! Thank you all! Of course, I'm still indecisive. The replaceable vs. rechargeable battery cuts both ways, and I'm not sure on which side of the line I fall. The compass is a neat trick on the Teric, for sure, and I do like the readability of the display...

    Teric AI vs. Perdix AI?

    Hi, all - I'm planning a major dive computer upgrade, and I'd love to get some opinions and facts from the most knowledgeable group out there - actual Shearwater users. Here are the questions I'd love your thoughts on: 1. Other than form factors, is there a material difference between the...

    Trip Report Bonaire Trip Report 12/29/18 - 1/5/19 (+ Hat Tip to SB!)

    Sorry, MN Lakeman, I didn't see them. There was a bakery stand outside Van den Tweel, and I think they may have had fruit or veggies on some days.
