I do the same. I use blue and set brightness to 8 (of 10). Very visible and battery life is still great.

It's probably built into the chipset by now: every garmin fitbit eyewatch has one. Might as well call it a feature and charge for it.
As the father of nitrox put it, science will always rule over BS. An increased heartrate is an important measure of increased workload resulting in more on gassing of nitrogen.I don’t care about the hardware. BFD. SP has baked some alchemy based on your heartrate into the deco algorithm. Nuts to that.

I set my G2 on the brightest setting with it always on.
In addition, set the microbubble level at zero, turn off PDIS, and you should be diving the native algorithm, Buhlmann ZH-L16 ADT. You might also have to set the air consumption setting to -12.since the belt is optional, whatever bs they baked in is optional as well: don't connect the belt and it should fall back to the straightforward whatever bubble science they baked in.
I would also like to hear more about Scubapro's Human Factor Diving. There is no discussion in the manual concerning how heart rate, skin temperature, and gas consumption are implemented and how they affect the decompression algorithm.OK. I’m a scientist. Show me the science. Papers welcome showing the the relationship and how it has been implemented by SP.
I suspect the HR and workload effects on the algorithm are based on some scientific data as they’ve been using this for several years now with the Galileo, and they could probably supply you with the study if you ask the right person. But in any case I like the idea of monitoring my HR while I dive. I do so when I exercise in other sports and it’s useful feedback and is being used by active people more and more.I wish that SP would dump the BIO BS. Useless unwanted rubbish feature that just serves to cloud a really nice device.
