Re: Oxy2 / Air Z on mCCR ?

So, is that a "Don't use it!!"

I am getting deco-info that I didn't expect from it.

(Disclainer: My testing is for now limited to two short dives -so it might be completely wrong)

I did keep the O2% between 30 and 40 ca. -and that made the alarm for overexertion beeb only a couple of times. -I guess if I would start off with a high percentage, and then go low, and high again -that would be more "difficult" for it to handle. But keeping it between 30 and 40 is probably what it expects for a scr-dive with 40% and some parts of the dive with high workload

The decoinfo I got from it, was worse (as in not so much no-deco-time) then the backupcomputer, Suunto Gekko -set to air. Did not expect that..

Has anyone else actually used it for this, and knows what happens when you do more interesting things?

And for those who worry; No, I'm not going to dive deep/deco with this thing,as I need more time getting to know it properly, will bring plenty of bailout -and the VR3 is in the process of getting bought..
