    Opinions on Oceanic VT3

    they are great. Oceanic is great. My first VT3 was off by ten degrees on temp. They replaced with another one. That one did that altitude thing and lost link. Sent it back got brand new one. over a 100 dives later no replacement of batteries and I cant think of a time it lost signal.
