do the aqua lung and oceanic geo dive watch/computers auto activate dive mode upon getting wet? So if you take it in the shower will it switch to dive mode if you have auto dive mode activation on?
 
Usually an increase in pressure is needed for auto-on/auto-start so simply getting wet isn't typically enough. Check the specific manual for the definitive info.
 
manual says it will record a dive upon depth of 5' for 5 sec. But I believe the dive mode activates when it gets wet. I wasn't sure
 
Dive computers with a standby/sleep mode, or divert to a time/date screen (wrist watch mode) will often "wake up" when they sense they are wet, but dive mode is typically not activated until submerged below a specific nominal depth...usually just a bit past 1 meter.

can anyone with an aqualung i200/i470/i450 or oceanic geo confirm this?
I have a Geo 2. It activates dive mode at 5 ft for 5 seconds
