Gekko and HelO2 algorithm

[hongrace]

If I wear a Gekko and a HelO2 together, will they both show the same deco or no deco information?

Within recreational limits, probably yes.

The Helo2 can be changed to be on the more conservative or aggressive side. There is a screen in which you can change The personal settings for this & can also increase/ reduce the RGBM. I don't have a Gekko & don't know/ think the algorithm can be changed. I use a Vyper Air as a back- up, but it also has a changeable RGBM, like the Helo2, so I can get them to read pretty close to each other.

They should be the same if no settings are changed. It would be interesting to see the result. I know the Gekko and other Suunto DC's have the RGBM algorithm. The Helo2 have what Suunto call a "Technical RGBM algorithm". Not sure on the differences.

I have a D9 and Zoop (Gekko upgrade), they both display the same NDL and depth information when used together.
