On the last dive on the thistlegorm we spent a bit of time at 28ish nosed about and then got gradually shallower as we worked throuigh the wreck. after about 40mins we had worked up to 20m and my comp was still allowing me 30min no stop time, my friends d6 had 12 mins left and the guide had 8mins. There wouldnt have been much of a difference in profiles between us and we were all on 31% - is there a problem with the computer or does this seem normal?
I had intended on selling it and getting something that could do three mixes but i'm now unsure about selling it if its not working.
Ant help appreciated |
Hi Liamm,
Suunto computers are notoriously conservative when it comes to calculating no decompression limits and the length of the decompression stops. Personally I dive a Suunto Vytec and have no problem with that (better safe then sorry),
but some people don't use Suuntos just because of that.
Hope this helps,
Josef
