suunto stinger and stage gases

Just wondering if it is possible to do stage gasses on a suunto stinger? If possible how do you do it or is there a hack that will enable this function

I have a Vytec DS, it can use 2 deco gasses, I think?

Not sure about the Vyper?

no on the vyper (I believe)
yes on the vytec - up to 2 gases on the older model - not sure how many on the newer model ( I assume 2).

well reason i ask is it may be worth buying a second dive computer as my stinger has already tried to make an escape once before so it is probably worth diving with a spare just in case and when doing advanced nitrox dives use stinger in gauge mode!

My stinger made an escape too.... Largely due to my stupidity of taking it off and putting it on top of the car whilst putting the rest of my gear away.... I forgot it and drove home... Ooops!

I got a Vytec DS as a replacement and a Uwatec depth/bottom timer.
