no ideas ?
 
I have a Galileo Luna, similar to the Sol, but I have not upgraded it for trimix. I wouldn't get that computer solely for the trimix option. If you are planning on using it for trimix, get a real technical dive computer. The Shearwater Predator is liked by many people. There is a newer, smaller model out called the Petrel. Liquivision also makes good computers, such as the X1. Read some other threads on this forum to get some other opinions.

Here are a few threads. You can also find a lot more information in the "Computers" forum.

Second the Predator for Trimix. I'll be getting a Petrel as a back up to my Predator at some point. Or another Predator from someone selling theirs to get a Petrel!
For a tech tri mix computer. Shearwater. Nothing else even comes close in my opinion.
 
I've used my Sol and my son's Luna in gauge mode. They work great. Only done a few trimix dives since I upgraded the Sol and wasn't a fan -- hard to get it to synch up with my vplanner tables and I hate the gas switch UI.

I like the looks of the X1, need to get some in-water time with one before I jump though.
 
what all you think about xdeep
