POLL : Oceanic Atom vs Suunto Mosquito

[blues_diver]

Love my Vyper

Felt Mosquito a bit flimsy... no idea about Atom

 

[jagfish]

I'd choose mosquito or D9 (and I have the Atom)

 

[artusor]

I will go with the Suunto. I use a Stinger as the backup to my Cobra, but its almost identical to the Mosquito.

Hello folks,

I'll go straight to the point.

What pdc would you rather have:

1) Atom ( http://www.oceanicworldwide.com/p_computers_atom.html )
2) Mosquito ( http://www.suunto.com/ )

reasoning isn't necessary. Just put no 1 or no 2.

Greatly appreciated!

Thank you

1 I currently have an Atom and love it.

The mosquito. It isn't air integrated, but it's conservative and reliable, with user serviceable battery (I don't know about the Atom's battery.)

I think VIE is right, the D9 is a better comparion to the Atom. It's hard to compare integrated to non-integrated.

One thing I heard about the Atom is that the tank pressure is displayed on a separate screen from the default screen with depth/time/NDL info. I think I would hate that, but you get trade-offs when dealing with a small screen. I don't know what the D9 displays on the default screen.

The Atom battery is user changeable.

The price and features difference between the two doesn't make for a fair comparison, if you are buying for me I'll take the Atom thank you.

 

[cmalinowski]

I have the atom and like it. I agree that tank pressure on another screen is a slight pain (one button push away), but I also have a backup that I use so the inconvenience is not there for me.

 

[Spratman]

Neither. I have a Cressi Archimedes.
