I use and love my Suunto Cobra -- AI on hose with compass, on retractor clipped to BC. I laugh at the people here who don't use AI giving all the reasons AI/hose/hoesless is evil which just goes to prove they've never tried it. LOL!
I have my Cobra clipped with a retractor in such a way I can glance down and see the PSI at any time. At the safety stop I fold my arms with the Cobra out so I can watch it easily. The retractor also keeps it from hanging down to snag something or bang on the reef. I see too many SPG's hanging and banging the reef.
Accuracy? LOL, so you think a basic SPG which has marks every 100-200 PSI and, because of the old design, can become inaccurate by a simple hard drop, is more accurate than an electronic device that reads right down to 1 psi? Huh? You can estimate to the nearest 100 and I can read to the nears 1 psi. Which provides the best information? I like the digital AI.
I love the integration while diving and how it gives me information, and I love it after the dive for planning the next dive, and I love it when I get home and download the information, analyze my profile and SAC. The only think I might change is going to the wrist mount Vyper Air sometime to eliminate the hose and put it on my wrist, though I'm not convinced that having it on my arm is better so I haven't decided to change yet.
IMHO, it's a personal choice and there is no one right/best setup. The world goes 'round because we all have personal preferences and that's why all the manufacturers make several different devices. I like that I have many choices. Don't insult someone else's equipment choice, just give your likes of your equipment and let others make their choice.
