Sherwood Sage worth it?

[Kevin Blaylock]

I am in the market for a new dive computer, and have been scouring the internet on information. My lds offered a great deal on the Sherwood Sage (half of original cost). I have read reviews online and many of them mention the tank pressure not reading correctly. Can anyone give me some insight as to the quality of the Sage? It seems to be a good computer. And yes I understand that I said Sherwood and not Sheerwater (either the Perdix or the Teric) and that is because Shearwater is a little out my price range at the moment. Any help that can be offered would be appreciated.

look for a used petrel/perdix and skip AI for a regular spg instead

First I have heard of any possible issue. The Sage is made by Pelagic Pressure Systems, same as any Aqualung or Oceanic computer. I would expect the pressure sensor to be as reliable as others from the same OEM, unless there is a firmware issue to correct.
