Normally I dive with my VT3. Last week I also took my Geo along for a deeper dive, basically as a back-up. Right arm VT3, left arm Geo.
My Geo went into decompression after about 17min, while the VT3 didn't. After 17min the VT3 was at TLBG 6, at 19min at 7, at 32min back to 6. Both computers where not on "conservative". The screen shots of the same dive with both computers are attached.
In the second dive the same day which was slightly deeper and a deco dive, the VT3 was out of deco for 10min when I surfaced, but the Geo was on violation. A fun-"dive" in a decompression chamber last year showed that the depth measurement of the VT3 is 100% accurate, so the Geo is about 1m off.
Since I don't believe that the 1m depth calibration difference makes the difference, what is it then? Any ideas?
