Safety Stop Timer in Seconds

[DunkTankDiver]

Currently in the market for a new dive computer. Nothing technical just within advanced nitrox limits. I know it’s picky of me but curious which models out there have a safety stop timer in seconds not minutes. Just a personal preference.

Any suggestions?

I believe the Perdix AI has the countdown in seconds. While you can do Tek diving with it, they've really made this super friendly for the Rec diver. I love mine!

As well as the already mentioned Perdix (wrist mount), the Atomic Cobalt (console style) has a countdown in seconds.
I'm sure there are others.

A Suunto Zoop Novo has a stopwatch so maybe it counts down in seconds also - IDK.

Not the older Zoop - now discontinued.

Possibly the two Eon models also - the Eon Core being the latest (smaller)

Most dive computers count off the 3 minute safety stop in seconds.

It's the norm not the exception. For obvious reasons.

I think the OP's question was what computers display the time for stops in seconds as a countdown timer. Shearwater and Atomic do, there are probably others, but it's definitely not the norm.

The Oceanic Geo 2 counts down in seconds. I know some folks have reservations about them being owned by Huish, but it may be worth looking into.

Confirm what others have said, the safety stop for the Perdix is in seconds.
I use it for rec diving and its fabulous. Best computer I've ever had.

Oceanic Veo 180, Hollis DG03 or similar. Both of them are obsolete.
You don't need to spend a fortune for such a trivial thing.

Not sure if all mares-Computers do, but at least the PuckPro-model does

Just out of curiosity, why are seconds important for your safety stop?
