I sold my Peregrine a month back, but last time I checked in the settings I don't recall a setting to configure how the vibrate function actually erm, vibrates... Also the Peregrine was vibrate only, no hardware for audible beeps etc. On my Teric I can configure between audible and vibrate (or...

Mine is brand new so perhaps not the best example, however: 74% right now after a single fast charge to 100% when I first unboxed it, 7 dives (at least 60 mins each) with AI turned off, minimal compass use and about 9 days time since that first initial charge. OC rec mode. Screen brightness...

Further dilemma - the dive shop sold out of the older style Shearwater transmitter and obviously won't be getting any more in stock. With the Aqualung transmitter only having a 1 year warranty, and only being about 70 USD cheaper, looks like I may as well go with the Swift

Thanks for the input everyone. As it turns out, I can get a brand new Aqualung transmitter for about 20 USD less than a new (old model) shearwater transmitter. I didn't check the warranty period yet though, if it's only 1 year vs Shearwater's 2 year then I may just go with the old style (but...

Looks like the second hand one is no longer available. Perhaps I will get a new old style model, cheaper and offers the exact same functionality from my point of view.

Thanks for the reply. Where I’m living the dive shop still sells the old grey transmitter, as well as the new swift. The price difference is about 50usd as they offer a small amount of discount on the swift. I also found someone locally selling a 2nd hand yellow sw transmitter for around 100 usd...

I’m also wondering how the new transmitter performs. Was quite disappointed when I read through (all 16 pages) of this topic mostly arguing over sac and gtr. Has anyone used the new swift transmitter? Did you find it worth the extra premium over the old sw transmitter?

The low NDL alarm (alert?) was handy in this example. I knew I was close to the NDL but didn't wanna keep staring at my dive computer as a pose to the Mola mola in front of us. I feel a vibrate on my computer (which I was expecting) which in turn prompts me to check and confirm I'm at low NDL...

Also a point to note: the Perdix does not have vibrate function for alerts, something I came to find super useful when I had my peregrine. Not that I totally rely on the vibrate per se, but it was hugely useful for confirmation of events I knew were about to happen, such as low NDL or safety...

Chiming in on this topic as I was in the same position when owning a Peregrine. I was totally set on the Perdix due to the larger screen (compared to the Teric) and many commented on here (and it would appear at first glance on Shearwaters website also) that the Teric and Perdix are almost...

Wow, so if I'm understanding this correctly, not only did they not offer to check for CO (which most places seem not to do anyway) , but they also didn't offer a Nitrox analyser either? Or do you mean an O2 analyser to check standard tanks of air?

I'd rather this not turn into a data protection / GDPR / Privacy topic, but in answer to your questions above, yes I mostly use (if I use them) the services you mentioned in a very anonymous way. I don't have any music streaming services, don't have any social media other than Facebook which I...

I'd be interested in hearing more about this. For me, Garmin taking all my data is a deal breaker. Pay a hefty price tag for Garmin to then (probably) sell data on to make even more money? Sounds like an even worse deal than Facebook, at least theirs is free 😂 If it in fact needs to be connected...

Was considering an MK2i (I'd be wanting AI) but the crazy high price put me off, and the possibility of a new model being released in the near future. How is everyone's MK2i holding up these days?

Is that a custom Kraken can that I see there?

This isn't specifically aimed at DandyDon but more for the wider audience. I'm very happy with my 30 dollar CO tester, and since using it I've had zero instances of CO sickness after diving, due to refusing tanks that measure any amount of CO at all. I'd say I've dived 100-ish tanks and of those...

Thought I'd chime back into this thread in case it helps someone. Since purchasing, I've been using the CO tester on all tanks I've been diving with. Found a few contaminated tanks, one which read around 30ppm on my reader. Whilst the reader might not be the most accurate, the fact that it is...

Thought I'd chime in on this as I was having a similar issue, in that I'd regularly get wet breathing during a dive, some small bubbles escaping from the DSV if I roll on my back. Looks as though it may have been the zip tie for the rubber mouthpiece that was too small and hence couldn't be...

Hey Kraken Owners! Does anyone use the Oxycheq Mach V30 wing with their Kraken and VDH backplate? I have very limited options in the country I live when it comes to wings, the Oxycheq Mach v30 looks about the closest to a VDH wing, but I can't try it with my setup without buying one, pretty...

Update: So I'm cutting the back plate from plastic since SS is crazy expensive here and I can easily modify plastic if it's not quite right. I'm working towards emulating the VDH design, with some much needed help from another member. Has anyone tried the Diverite Voyager XT 35lb with the...
