Hi everyone,

I am just about to buy a freediving computer and I saw a post with freediving computers in the deeperblue forums, dated back to 2010. Also site link in this post is no longer active. It would be useful just for reference and understanding progress made over the years from manufacturers. Also posts with inactive links should be somehow blocked for obvious reasons. If I was a maker I would like to include in my machine the following:
-Clear instructions manual and easy to use. Not a NASA calculator.
-No advertising as freediving and have more functions for air, nox, transmitters etc.
-Heart Rate
-Compass
-Back light
-Big digits
-Big screen 1 - 1/2'' with small screen frame.
-Metal and Rubber model (preferably black color)
-Real time depth - diving time monitoring and recording
-Automatic calculation and countdown activation of surface recovery time.
-Blood O2 concentration
-Wi-fi connectivity

Then this is just me dreaming but is there a model as close to the above characteristics? Cost is not important.
Btw the two last characteristics do not exist on the market, so no need to answer on them.

Thank you in advance for assisting.
 
hey there.

you have the Sporasub SP2 but you have to buy the HR chest strap separately or you can go with the OMER UP-X1 or UP-X1 charge. the Omer comes along with the HR chest strap and from what I know Sporasub and Omer are the same company so better to go with the Omer (Lower Cost ).

Not sure about the other dive computers with HR monitor.
