This particular crash test dummy is too skin right now to volunteer so I will pass as well eventhough I REALLY want to see the new profile.

For the price of the option, I think I will just invest in the Tachyon computer from Heliox instead...

It must be nice to never get to dive any new sites where you don't know the profile and must use the deepest/longest option on the tables...

Maybe someone at Delta could remove that marketing drivel they have. Only computer you ever need, yeah right. With that kind of upgrade prices its BS. That HS Explorer suddenly starts to feel like way better idea for my future CCR/He computer... or Tachyon.

I still wouldn't put my money anywhere near a Tachyon, totally unknown and unproven... ask me in years time though and I may have a different opinion.

So if they are the costs for the upgrades.. Out of control! What is the cost on a new one fully loaded ?

Cheers

I am rather tired of the VR-3 adding more shallow time when i am adding additional deeps stops and smoothing the curve..

I do this and my 2.1 VR3 reduces the shalow stop time??? Often look ahead stops will clear altogether when I add deep stops and I have had 10 -15min reductions in 6m stop time??

I tend to ascend o the first bubble stop depth and then add intermediat stops / slow ascents from there up. ven without going to the look ahead feature I can see my 12m stop time reducing whilst I am adding a 15m stop to the profile.

I have to say if my VR3 didt credit me for ading deep stops and slow ascents I would bite the bullit and pay out the 800 to upgrade my two units or i would abandon them alltogether.

Oi... you are a better man than most if you could do "head based deco" on a multi-level dive, or one without flat profiles...
