Yep seen that - I'd like to see some updates on this guys product as I think it's come along a bit now from the chunky aluminuim item shown. It's a nice idea, using the same 3 cells, depends I suppose if you mainly want it for convenience and deco calculation, or if the extra redundancy of another independantly powered PO2 reading is of value. Personally it's a bit of both, and I'd contemplated the posibility of using a totally different sensor for the VR3, (maybe a slower more accurate, or faster less accurate) to cross check the R22-BUDs.

A HUD is definitely something of value I think - it's the main thing that I'd thought was worth any additional money on the new electronics - however it wasn't worth that much extra money, hence getting the original unit now rather than waiting.
