Man my computer sucks

Was diving yesterday nitrox 30, 120 for 15 with a Scuba Pro air z on air setting. I blew past a 20 ft stop for 3 minutes and it lock me out. WTF's up with that ? Now I can't read depth, air pressure or nothing. Lowered it back down to 30 ft for 5 minutes with a piece of string but didn't work. Had to set out the rest of the day drinking beer in the sun. Where can I get a deal on a VR 3 ? My computer sucks.

Most will only lock you out for 24 hours. Be patient.

VR3 (c3) for open circuit trimix is just under 1400.00. Adding the backlit color screen, a must for baby boomers, you raise the price 300.00 more. The cool part is that it is the last computer you'll ever buy. It is always upgradeable and never out dated. AND it will never lock you out! Jim J
VR2 trimix is cheaper.

Re: Man my computer sucks

Put yours on ebay and go buy a Cochran emc 16 for $600. Standard air or 1 FO2 It's upgradable to Two Mix Nitrox, Switchable to Two PO2 - 2 FO2 / 2 PO2. 290 different nitrox combos. Check it out here www.divecochran.com/about_us.html It's also got conservatism, if your a little hung over or just not feeling 100% you can add up to 50% conservatism and it will give you a more conservative profile. Best of all it will NEVER lock you out. I love mine.

No, I don't sell them. I just really like them.

If you had it set on air it is not going to let you dive as long as you could on 30%
