Hey Shearwater,
Recently purchased one of your Perdix AI dive computers and I am loving it so far. One thing I noticed on a dive though is that the Surface Air Consumption/SAC calculation is in PSI/minute. Have y'all ever thought about adding a feature to allow people to put in their cylinder size prior to the dive so that you could get cuft/min? Doing this would allow more usable information about your SAC rate especially as you're doing dives with different tank sizes. For example on a two tank rec charter dive I often use a LP95 on the first dive and an AL80 on the second.
Another thing that came to mind is it would be super interesting for y'all to sponsor some deco research and I would imagine relatively easy. Many people upload their dive profile and data to your cloud based app. It might be interesting to have a short survey people could fill out after their dive with questions related to how they felt post dive (e.g., if someone had skin bends, other DCS symptoms, just felt lousy, etc.) You may only get people that have issues filling out the surveys, but I wonder if you would see some strong correlations between certain gradient factor settings or dive profiles and problems with DCS or even just feeling lousy after your dive (sub clinical DCS maybe).
Just two thoughts. Love diving my Perdix AI computer so far.
