Re: Thinking about what others do with a wrist computer

Reef House no longer supplies Nitrox.   They have to get a new compressor to do it, I think.  Apparently Nitrox was chewing up the old system which wasn't designed for it.

Otherwise I dive Nitrox any chance I can get.  But especially when I'm planning on 37 dives in 2 weeks.

I'm interested to see how the new dive algorithm compares to my Cobra1, apparently one of the most conservative dive computers on the planet.    I'd guess at least half my 170 dives in Roatan were deco thanks to the computer being sooooo much more conservative than every other diver I've been around.
