Advice on computer

[jpou]

Hi everyone,

I started looking for my second computer as I have "outgrown" my old Aladin Sport.

Features I would like to have:
-> Mixed gases, no Trimix yet;
-> Wrist mount;
-> Not air integrated;
-> Thermometer;
-> PC interface can be optional;
-> Preferably user changeable battery;
-> Nothing too high-end.

At this moment I am thinking about Zeagle N2ition 3. Is there something comparable to N2ition 3? Price tag of N2ition 3 is more or less fine. I don't have any preferences for manufacturer.

Hi,

Given your list of specs, I'd go with the Uwatec Aladin Tec 2g.
Leisurepro.com currently has the Tec 2g in a console with FS-1 compass and SPG for $300.
Deepseasupply.com sells an $8 bungee wrist-mount for the Tec 2g.
Deep Sea Supply also carries a $14 bungee wrist-mount for the FS-1 compass.

I have no personal experience with this particular computer, but that's an incredible value for about $322 + whatever the bungee cord costs + shipping. Obviously, shipping to Ireland might kill this deal for you.

Many people are happy with this computer, and if you ever decide to cross over into technical diving, it is a very good bottom timer.

The only negative thing I've ever heard about them is that they tend to eat through batteries, but replacements are cheap, and you can replace them easily yourself.
