My hoseless computer only tells me how much gas I have, once I'm in the water. I want to know how much gas there is in the cilinder before I jump in to the ocean. That's why I added the spg.
Dear friends:
I am curious what folks who have a hoseless dive computer do on a dive with respect to also carrying a spg or not?
Thank you
The only reason it should not behave properly is if I as the brain dead diver forgets to change the battery or worse don't close the back and it floods. Either way that's my fault, not the computer.

Personally I've also never thought the logic makes sense to purchase a $1000 piece of electronics then thinking what happens if it fails. For a that much money it better not fail!

Once I actually save enough to buy the AI wireless wrist computer the SPG will go in my spare box. If I did spend the money for a week's diving vacation I'd probably buy a $300 back up computer or just make sure I have new batteries.
