I went ahead and purchased a Sherwood Wisdom Comp with the factory compass and quick-disconnect (Grabbed the last one thru E-bay/ Scuba.com, before the price jump; Whoosh ) ... The only complain I have is that the quick-disconnect seems a little too easy to disconnect accidentally ... The way it connects is by pushing it up and to one side then spring tension brings it back down and is locked ... Too disconnect you just follow the steps in reverse except that the spring tension is so soft that it seems too easy to disconnect ... I understand that in order for it to disconnect you have to go thru the motions and accidentally disconnecting might be difficult, but I dont see it impossible ... Now I dont have any experience with any kind of quick disconnect except the one on BC inflator (which I thought it was going to be the same) so maybe I might be a little paranoid ...
Now I fixed the problem by inserting an O-ring to fill in the gap between the quick-disconnect, so in order to remove I now have to use more force to squish the O-ring and then it will disconnect ... I figure that in the long run this might cause some premature ware and tare on the quick disconnect, but I rather replace the quick disconnect then risk damage by an accidental disconnect underwater (BYE, BYE WARRANTY )...
Anybody with the same or similar set-up have any comments or suggestions post them up...
