There's no reason not to be using a particular jump computer! Price isn't a factor anymore, particularly thinking about the expense necessary to jump in the initial place. The engineering continues to boost, expenses are decreasing and the benefits are many.

These things are good! All you need is incorporated into a hand top unit. Some also incorporate watch diving trips in gouna efficiency, in addition to some features of other features including container pressure. And sure, you are able to spend a lot, but it's not required to get what you need.

For people asking "therefore what's in it for me personally?", read on. How about more base time; more technical, multi-level jump programs determined real time; variable mixes for nitrox and blended fuel; and jump recording for starters.

Who hasn't had to cut a jump small because they deviated from their jump plan and for safety's sake defaulted to a far more careful base time? It occurs all of the time. You see what you think may be described as a large green moray peeking out a hole some few legs more down, and you take a couple moments to check on it out.

Bam, so you blew your plan. Possibilities are to take out an RDP (assuming you brought one down) and recalculate, that will probably spend any time you would've regained, or cut the jump small to be sure you stay within your no-deco limits.

On one other hand, if you were using a computer, it would recalculate on the travel, showing your new limits. As opposed to surfacing earlier, you simply alter your own time and range throughout the remaining of the jump and voila - you maximized your base time without diminishing safety.

These are security, don't become one these insane who abuse the computer by fishing to the edge of its limits. That's an excellent way to get bent or some more severe decompression illness.

Know your tables, and know your limits. If you utilize a hand computer, it's an easy task to forget the basics.
In order to avoid that, just comb through to your tables from time to time and plan a couple of dives the "old-fashioned way" ;.It's great practice and maintains you safe.

However, it's a no-brainer - get your own jump computer, use it wisely, and enjoy more of why you used scuba to begin with.
