Any suggestions for the best Freedive computers??
For anything casual to 100 meters, suunto d4i, small, "reliable", easy to use. Biggest problem with it is that they have no battery indicator, so it will work untill it does not. Every deep freediver that I know, and I know more then a few is using suunto.
Ratio has some freedive algorithams but I would not trust a company that bases their algorithams on absolutly no scientific basis (as far as i know, might be wrong on that one.)
Oceanic ones look good but I know of 2 separate cases where they have leaked below 50 meters.
Mares, cressi and omer released low budget ones for sprearfishing, i tried the omer one (spora sub sp1) and it worked fine, I still prefer suunto becouse I can use it for scuba also.
