Seriously, on my unit that's not the case. Yes it alarmed about the P02 but still worked fine. I now set the computer to 90% at 25 ft. I'm using 100% but we won't tell the computer about that! My problem has been on repetitive dives that it tends to crap out and calculate really crazy dives. The unit is supposed to only calculate a maximum of 3 hrs. deco but I've had mine calculating 7-9 hours. Even maxed it out once at 9:59 deco. You would have thought it was in surface mode if it weren't for the blinking "DEC". I still say it's a damn good bottom timer!!

It is punching out when it goes over 1.6 PPO2. So if you go to 20.5 ft your toast. And as you said it is the most expensive bottom timer I own.

Besides, if I do use it for a Nitrox dive and follow the profile it'll probably never get me bent, very safe! Let's see, by 30 minutes on my repetitive dive to 110FSW my Cochran was reliably telling my more then 3 hours of deco (deco gas of choice, 100%). I think it's sooo nice of them to take into consideration my well being by developing a computer that gives me an aggressive first dive profile and a REALLY safe repet..... <*grin*>. >> -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
