My husband and I are looking to get computers before we go on our dive vacation (assuming my checkout goes well next month. I have no doubt his will next weekend).
I'm trying to figure out if it is a good idea to get the same computer (we'll be diving together, and I know a few feet difference can vary the times, but they would be very close) or get different computers (my train of thought here is it is like a second opinion).
We are looking to stay under $250, so right now I'm looking at the Mares Puck, the Aeris XR1 NX, or the Suunto Zoop. Our dive shop heavily pushes Suuntos, but I didn't see any in-store that fit my price range. I'd be willing to go higher on my husband's computer (if we ever do a dive vacation, he might get into 3-4 dives a day. I can't see myself doing that) but not mine.
Thanks for the advice. I know there are a million threads on computers, and I've read many of them- but I'm still very lost.
