Aeris Atmos AI opinions?

[smb1014]

I am loking at buying the Aeris Atmos AI dive computer. I would like to know if anyone has any positive/negative comments regarding it. Any help and/or thoughts about it would be helpful.

No problems, about 60 dives on it. And to be honest, I havent been easy on it. ITs been to central america, drug along sandy beaches in california, and hammered against the rocks on a steep cliff exit site. Still ticking. Nice interface. the only thing I dont like about it is that its made in a way where you HAVE to have it slung on your left side. (unless you want to read it upside down). Of course, this isnt a issue for me, but if for some reason someone wanted to have it on their right side, it would be a issue. Another issue is the amount of memory it has. Memory is so cheap I dont understand why they didnt put more in it. IF the sampling rate is set to 15 seconds, and your average dive is 1 hour, you wont get more than 20 or so dives on it before you need to download them. Other than those few things, its perfect. I got it with the compass, and the download software and data cable. Thought the price was reasonable also.

50 dives on my atmos ai and it has performed flawlessly!! 2 other dive buddies also own the ai and no compalints so far!!!! did 4 consecutive days of 3 relatively deep(75 to 120ft) nitrox dives per day and the computer was terrific!!!!!!! user friendly. used the aeris atmos pro for 3 years prior to the ai and also no problems!! aeris also has an excellent reputation for standing by their products. good luck,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
