I managed to get it apart and it is basically a piston and spring. There was nothing I could see that could be adjusted or serviced. I already decided to replace it and would have already if Bauer weren't doing a stocktake. They are only 30 minutes from my house and have it in stock but it...

I should have mentioned this is exactly how mine works now. Starts slow, hits pressure and then comes out in a much higher constant stream. Previously, no air would come out at all (none, nada) for 30 seconds or so. I then get a bursts of air as the pressure builds up to 150bar and drops...

Michael, I'd be concerned that your PMV is not working correctly. From the Junior II manual It would take some time to build up the pressure to 150bar so there should be no flow at all until it reaches 150bar. By the way, Cody's PE-100 works exactly as mine (used to). I have but given the...

The Bauers are German and almost certainly metric and the whip swivels around the PMV. To make one of them work, it would need a bunch of other adapters, which will take time and extra cost. Sure it may be less that the A$400 but I won't have tanks for the weekend.

Michael, Are you talking about how yours works with load (i.e. connected to a tank) or with no load? With no load, it should work exactly as I described as that is the PMV doing its thing. The idea of the PMV is to ensure that the pressure of the air going through the filter is at least some...

Thanks for the confirmation. I've already contacted Bauer Australia and they have the part (it is actually PN 126153) in stock. It's $400 but that's better than having to replace a bunch of rusty tanks.

I have a Poseidon PE-100 compressor. I've had it for around 3.5 years and have not had any issues at all with it. The way I normally turn it on is with the drain valves open and the fill valve open. Once it starts, I close the drain valves but leave the fill valve open. Initially no air comes...

Would they, though? Serious question that I have often wondered. Would the medical professionals have the capabilities to download the dive log for every dive computer that is available? Would they really base treatment on what was in the computer or simply put the diver in the chamber and...

And like Apple, they don't fix bugs in a hurry, if at all.

Seeing as Garmin only just brought out the G1 I can't see a Mk3 coming out in a hurry. And if Garmin did release a Mk3 what would it do that the Mk2 series can't? In my opinion Garmin made a mistake making their own transmitter technology. Sure it has extra range but when has the range of the...

Your comments in the G1 thread and in the many other AI vs SP threads.

I'm confused. Most of your posts seem to be anti-AI.

I should add a couple of points. Method 2 is basically simulating Method 1. Making it look like it is reading the FIT file from the device rather than the filesystem of the computer. This is why it works. One difference between the 2 methods is the filenames of the FIT files are different...

The information is identical. So basically, all the data is stored in a FIT file in the Activity folder on the device. When you sync, that FIT file gets uploaded to and interpreted by the Garmin cloud. When you "Export original" you are doing exactly that, exporting the original FIT file...

You should be able to do it in the same way as the Mk1. There are two methods: 1) connect the G1 to the USB cable and make sure your computer sees it as a drive/filesystem. Then use the Import from dive computer function (try using Garmin Mk1) and point to the watch as the mount point 2)...

No. I think it was @scubadada that posted it. However here FAQ and Support | Shearwater Dive Computers they say but this is just having it on and receiving. There's no channel to establish as such. It just listens at the same frequency.

Rechargeable 14500 Li-ion. I've updated my post.

That's the opposite of what you'd expect. The Perdix is a simple receiver, listening for the broadcast from the transmitter. It was posted with information from Shearwater that the Perdix uses slightly more battery power when it doesn't receive a signal from the transmitter because it is...

The only times I've had the battery in my Perdix nearly die on me were on dives longer than 2 hours (but 16ºC water). There was no hint of a battery problem before the dive. During the dive the yellow low battery indicator came up and on my safety stop it went red. I use rechargeable 14500...

I worked it out - at least partially. The SAC was not 1.72 bar/min but the actual consumption (i.e. not taking depth into account). (210-50)/93 = 1.72. To get SAC you have to divide by (average depth (in metres)+10)/10. It appears your average depth was 14.22m so your SAC was actually...
