They have a nice SM mode which my Perdix still doesn’t have.
I am pretty sure Perdix AI has a SM mode that even lets you know when you should be switching tanks. This isn't even really new - 07-26-21 I guess less than a year old.

I think it's a good practice to learn to dive first w/o air integration. So you'd develop the muscle memory and not rely too much on the AI.I am pretty sure Perdix AI has a SM mode that even lets you know when you should be switching tanks.

Ummmmm, ok. That has nothing to do with me simply pointing out that the Perdix does in fact have a SM mode.I think it's a good practice to learn to dive first w/o air integration. So you'd develop the muscle memory and not rely too much on the AI.
how is looking at a computer screen different from looking at an SPG- both indicate when to switch -if you want refer to 'muscle memory" id say be sensitive to changes in trim that should initiate a lookI think it's a good practice to learn to dive first w/o air integration.

I noticed that here a lot more people feel attacked when there is someone not agreeing with them.
Thank you, this is good news, indeed! I have overlooked this updte.I am pretty sure Perdix AI has a SM mode that even lets you know when you should be switching tanks. This isn't even really new - 07-26-21 I guess less than a year old.

You definitely need a pressure gauge on your task on every dive. However, I dropped the SPGs and dive with transmitters only. The configuration of the hp ports on my Apeks regs would make a setup with both transmitters and SPGs clumsy. For cave diving I used to add button gauges for redundancy but some Floridian cave experts persuaded me that there is no need to add another failure point to the system. However, for extra redundancy you may find adapters made by Apeks which allow a neat setup with both AI and SPGs.I have added a SPG to my set up and will always keep one on a tank now.
