Question

Not sure of the Vyper2 but dont they beep when you first turn them on?Which i guess will be the volume of alarm for the other alerts.
cheers

I can't hear either of my computers in the UK either with the hood on. They definitely work that. I can hear them loud and clear when I've got no hood.

The solution is obviously to go somewhere warm on holiday

Can’t hear my Vyper 1 either when wearing a hood. Don’t think you can turn the bleep up.

I have the Cobra and don't hear a thing. As Mal says it's a question of looking. On the other hand I've dived with people who had Uwatecs and sounded those beeped like a squealing cat!
