I have two Oceanic computers that are for nitrox. One computer has a single button and appears to give me no deco dives that are consistent with what i have done in the past. I have another Oceanic computer, possibly a few years newer, which has two buttons. The second 2-button computer is giving me drastically lower no-deco times when diving.
The computers are set identically with same mix and we have compared the depth readings and elapsed times and they are in agreement. Last weekend I had 10 more minutes of no deco time, than the other computer. On a subsequent dive, the 2-button computer ended up with a 15 minute deco (for a 130 ft dive for maybe 6 minutes) while the other computer was still showing zero deco.
Is it possible the computer is that much different..or does it sound like it is not working properly?
thanks for the help.. sorry i don't have the model names in front of me..
