somehow it now works on my "problem child" Win10 computer too.... 
Interesting, however, it locked up in download mode, and I had to power it down to unfreeze it.
I didn't time it. Not more than a few minutes.
Mine did the same. The app apparently doesn't close the connection correctly.
I have had the Subsurface app force close itself twice now while connected to the Excursion.

I was unbale to get it to work on my windows 11 laptop, but after some messing around with the bluetooth got it to sync with my old thinkpad running windows 10. For some reason my iPhone doesn't "see" it even when in sync mode, but divestory app can connect to it no problem. With the subsurface cloud feature this isn't much of a problem because you can just sync on the laptop and then push it to the cloud.
I just picked the computer up over the weekend based on the opinions here on scuba board. Seems like a cool computer and it's awesome to find one with an active dev community!

That was what sealed the deal for me, I wanted my first computer to be able to serve as my backup in the future, no matter what variety of diving I end up doing. I've just recently gotten certified and if I'm still diving and enjoying myself after a year I'll spring for a perdix and a transmitter. Almost picked up a secondhand D5 or Eon with transmitter (found both of them for under 500 USD locally) but didn't want to be stuck in their ecosystem/algorithm. I know the Eon has been updated to give an option for ZHL-16C, however no custom GF, just 3 presets, and also lacks gas switching.
