Apeks DSX TTS logic ?

soo....does anyone wants to by Apeks DSX...50 dives

Pretty sure it was a design decision, as it's cheaper to implement the simpler algorithm. "TTS" goes on the feature list, and it would be a tiny fraction of buyers who would care about the specifics (single vs multi-gas) AND be able to return it if multi-gas TTS were critical to them.

It's just crazy to me that someone can make a design decision that defeats the main purpose of a dive computer - accurately and "online" provide decompression-information to the user.

Unfortunately the manual have no description of the function, as I almost assumed the deco gases had been switched off or something like that.

@Winmit I believe most tech divers plan their dives and the more a diver is advanced, the more they rely on a plan, the less this feature is important.

My perception could be biased, as most of my buddies plan in advance, knows how to make easy calculations (at least in the 0/60m range, no more than 30/40min deco), and the feature you mentioned is just nice to have, period. I wouldn't even bother to look for this feature in a computer, I simply don't need it for now.

Again, maybe it's just a bias, and other divers would pay more attention to this feature, I can't say that for sure.
