Comments about Scubapro Uwatec Aladin Smart Tec Hoseless Wrist Air/Nitrox Computer (wrist unit only):

I have owned this unit for a little less than a year, and have logged well over 100 OW dives on it. It is a great little computer and has helped extend my learning curve tremendously in terms of gas management. I always dive a redundant set-up, and this computer teams up well with the UWaTec Bottom Timer. I haven't experienced any sort of pairing issues, nor have I had any sort of excessive battery drains: the meter is currently at 75%...
Can't wait to upgrade to the Galileo

Comments about Scubapro Uwatec Aladin Smart Tec Hoseless Wrist Air/Nitrox Computer (wrist unit only):

Have had nothing but problems with this device - battery only lasted 7 months (did about 12 dives with it).
It is suppose to allow up to 3 transmitters on 3 separate tanks - it would only pair with one transmitter (I was told it was a software problem). Any Maintenance requires it to be returned to dealer - even batteries.
I have owned other Uwatec/ScubaPro items and all have been excellent. This is the first that I would not recommend for use on any kind of dive.

Comments about Scubapro Uwatec Aladin Smart Tec Hoseless Wrist Air/Nitrox Computer (wrist unit only):

Have used this computer in cold quarry dives and open ocean from New England to Aruba and west. Works well dont have any regrets, has great planner nice safety stop timer and gets you outta deco obligations if it happens. I am sad that the temp function isnt accurate, quarry temps of 38 read 31 to 34 deg on readout.

Comments about Scubapro Uwatec Aladin Smart Tec Hoseless Wrist Air/Nitrox Computer (wrist unit only):

Uwatec has produced a great all-around performer in the Smart TEC. I would say it is not a real TEC computer but it will allow for multiple tanks. Nice display with an easy to use menu setup. Holds 99 dives and is syncable with a PC not a MAC. Very accurate Depth Reading. Accent meter is almost to sensative with no way to adjust. This means if you are accending and raising your arm your computer will deep. You can also adjust how conservative the nitrogen absorption algorithm is with the microbubble settings L1-L5. I found the Suunto's algorithm way too conservative and the oceaenic too liberal. The Uwatec is great at L0 setting and you can go to five more conservative settings if you want. Overall a great computer. No regrets
