Vpm Vr3

RobPot · 6th August 2005, 16:16

Does anyone know if this is going to be a user-selectable option, or will it be either a VPM VR3, or a Buhlmann VR3?

It will be user-selectable before a dive but is locked in once the dive has commenced.
Delta P are releasing the VPM-B as an option, the normal software Buhlmann 16 with microbubble stops added will still be the standard in new Vr3's.
The VPM-B will cost 193 stg if orderd with a new unit or if you add it to an existing Vr3 version 3.0 software.
As you will notice the prices seem to be causing distress and there is nothing I can do about that, but Delta P have been at this for 2 years and they clearly believe it is value for money, I intend reserving judgement on value for money untill I have dived with it.

Come into this thread very late, but why is anyone surprised by the price. I have to agree it is steep, but it is also par for the course from Delta-P. That being said, the odds are I will still upgrade to it. Which ever way you look at it, it is still cheeper than buying an Explorer.

Sad but true.

not by much (assuming you have an older vr3) .. a non cell version of the explorer is $1200 us while the cell version is $1300 us

Hi guys, any update on an ETA of the VPM version of the VR3?

I'm currently looking at getting a VR3, debating wether to keep waiting for the right one at the right price on ebay, get a new one now, or wait a bit for the VPM version....

Any info muchly appreciated!

Cheers

I think Jerome is trying the VPM version. Maybe he can suggest something if he's not somewhere in a hole...

DeltaP had a public announcement regarding the VPM software at their booth.
I asked Tammy earlier to mail me a copy which I'll post then.
