Vision Electronics

Are AP looking to offer existing Inspiration owners an opportunity to upgrade the electronics / handsets etc from "classic" to "vision" at a reasonable price, if so , does anyone have an idea of the price difference between "Vision" and importing a Hammerhead unit from the US ?

The 2004 retail price list quotes £2467.50 for Vision Electronics upgrade with HUD's, PC download & Logviewer software.

You pay extra for scrubber monitor & deco software.

Hi Geordie,

I don't know the cost of the Hammerhead at present, I ordered mine almost two and a half years ago and got tired of waiting and cancelled.

However the upgrade prices retail from AP for the Vision Electronics are:

Vision Electonics with HUD PC Download and logviewer software £2467.50

Scrubber Monitor:£300

Nitrox Deco Software:£115

Trimix Deco Software:£115

HTH

Cheers

Dave Cooper

It's about the same £2500.00 is the figure doing the rounds but no one seems to know for sure yet. You deed the head and a new scrubber ad housing for the upgrade.

There is little point IMHO its more cost effective to sell the old unit and buy a new one.

I think you will find that the APD route is actually less expensive and you get a CE-marked bit of kit that does not EAT batteries! You may find that the Hammerhead goes the same way as Bob's ADV. In the mean time here's a picture of a Hammerhead I got with the aid of an Evolution.
