I really can't complain about mine. It has some issues, but overall it has been a great computer for me. My biggest issues are: 1. The downloading of dives is much more difficult than it should be. I have a MacBookPro, and I use MacDive for my log. Many times I have to plug/unplug/plug/unplug...

Thanks to all for the information and suggestions. We finally contacted Lindy's and are going to stay there for a week while we look around and see if we find something we like better, if not, Lindy's has a monthly rent of 12,000 pesos. Leaving in a few days, looking forward to the change in...

Thank you for this. Michael

Thank you for your reply. Michael

Hi guys, I searched this forum and there are some posts about Moalboal, but most also discuss other locations on Cebu. I have been instructing on Malapascua since June of last year, and the 4am dives have finally tired me out. I really enjoy the Thresher Shark sightings, but I really dislike...

I have had the puter and transmitter for almost a year and have no operational problems, but yes, the battery goes fast. I teach and do about 300 dives a year and I am currently on my 4th battery. So about 3 months is all I can get out of the battery. The transmitter is still on the first...

Hi guys Took this yesterday in the Philippines. Can't get a solid ID from anyone here. Please tell me what it is and perhaps point me to a pic of what it looks like uncurled. Thank you. Michael

Coincidentally, I just received my order from the following link: Oceanic Instrument Lens Covers Select the 'Oceanic OC1 Lens Cover Stick On Film' They fit perfectly, and $10 instead of $15. Michael

A lot of you say carry a lot of small bills, because change can be difficult to get, how much did you try to carry? The suggestion was made that 1000 pesos a day (roughly $20) should cover food and drink. What denominations do you try to have? Looks like there are 20p, 50p, 100p, 200p, 500p and...

Lots of great info, thanks all! Guess I will find a bank in Manila and exchange cash there. Globe or Smart? I have the iPhone6, unlocked. Don't make many calls, but good internet is desired. Michael

I have a 5 hour layover in Manila. Are there 'better' money exchangers there?

Hiya Bill, I am heading to Malapascua in 10 days. Will be there the evening of the 25th. Gonna dive there and meet some folks, see if I want to do my IDC there with Thresher Diving. So may be on the island for at least a month, maybe longer if I can find work after. Hope to see you there, Michael

Hi guys, Booked a ticket to Cebu for the 22nd (10 days from now!). I am planning to check out Malapascua and probably doing my IDC there starting in early July. So I will be there at least a month, perhaps much longer if I can pick up some teaching after I am done. So, say 30 days minimum on...

Can't say, still on the original batteries, computer and transmitter. Michael

I will add my $.02. I have been diving with the OCi for about 2 months. I have about 30 dives on it. It has performed flawlessly on each and every dive. Pressure always displayed accurately. The USB connection works great, and after downloading the correct IRDA (?) driver for my MacBook Pro...

Thanks. Gonna give that a shot. Michael

Hi guys, I have been diving with an Oceanic OCi for about 2 months and really like the computer. It came with one screen protector. Not the plastic, snap-over type, but a clear, rubbery, stick-on type of protector. It peels right off the screen easily, and can be repositioned (I have done this...

Heh heh. You already bought them for your whole crew? An item still seeking funding on KickStarter? Nice.

Hi guys, Looking for some spare screen covers for my OCi and having zero luck finding them. Is the screen the same size as the OC1? I can find those covers on Amazon. Thanks, Michael
