I'm used to diving an aeris computer. It's a very very liberal algorithm that I have never been able to match. On deeper deco dives I cut tables on vplanner........I just bought the petral and have played with it and the settings. I set the gf on 45/95 and it matches pretty close to vplanner. Same run time just different times at certain stops. I went with 45/95 because that's what it's set at under rec nitrox. But under rec nitrox the dive plan it's a long deco........so basically what I'm asking is what does everyone run for settings and how can I maximize bottom time without getting killed with deco. Very planner is very conservative compared to what I'm used to on my aeris a300cs. Is the bulhman or optional vpmb less conservitive? I'm not 100% on gradient factors......thanks alot
