What i have found out is that it is less protective than the recreational units. So when it tells you to do a 5 in stop you do 5 min not 3 or 4.
Well,yes.
The stops the Predator gives are required,obligatory,decompression stops. Not optional "safety" stops. Decrease the conservatism before the dive if you don't want to stop for so long,but be aware of what you are doing and the possible consequences.
Not fulfilling a decompression stop should only be done for a very,very good reason, e.g medical emergency or perhaps large hungry sharks. If you can't finish the stops because you don't have enough gas then you have majorly screwed up!
