Comments about Genesis Genesis 200 ft. 2 Gauge Compact Console:

Great peice of equipment for the price, was pointed to this unit by the sales associate because it was eiser to read and they were correct. However i was not able to register the prodcut with the manufacture, leisurepro does offer a warranty themselves. I did have to call for the wqrranty cards becasue they were not included in my shipment. they were recieved a few days later and wer already filled out with most of the required information

Imperial gauges not metric!!!!

imperial

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Genesis Genesis 200 ft. 2 Gauge Compact Console:

I am sure this product is fine. However, I do not know where in the world other than the USA they use imperial gauges.I had to purchase metric ones. I wrongly assumed that all gauges would be metric or both metric and imperial. As for the quality, I have never used them and not likely to ever use them so I am unable to comment on them. This purchase taught me an important and expensive lesson.

Comments about Genesis Genesis 200 ft. 2 Gauge Compact Console:

If you are looking to upgrade your gauges, this is probably one of the better options available. The unit is rugged and lightweight and has stood up very well for me. If you want to add a compass you can easily pop out a hard plastic cover on the back and inset your favorite compass. The Sherwood '06 is a perfect fit. I think my favorite option is changing out the depth gauge for a simple puck style dive computer. In my case, it was an Aeris XR-1 that I installed. The simple reason I find this option excellent (as opposed to purchasing a console that already has a computer) is that the setup allows me to have my pressure gauge and dive computer located on the front of the console. This is substantially better for me than flipping the console over to see how much air I have remaining. I realize that some dive computers can replace the pressure gauge but those setups will come at a much higher price. Frankly, I like the thought of being able to pop my analog depth gauge back in and continue diving if my little XR-1 puck decides to quit while at sea. Those who rely on an integrated console won't be diving until repairs are made! All in all, this is a great value that has just enough options to make it a long term addition to your setup.

Comments about Genesis Genesis 200 ft. 2 Gauge Compact Console:

I'm 48 years old. Being able to see my gauges is a much bigger deal than it was 25 years ago, and this is such an improvement over my last model. I don't push the envelope too far (in depth, time, or number of dives per day) so I don't need a ton of fancy computerized bells and whistles. This console is clear and easy to read at a glance -- perfect for me.

Love the low profile design, very minimalistic. Easy to read color indicators. Clips to BC easily. Works well in low light. Strong construction. Most standard module compasses will fit on the back side. Great buy..Recommend this to anybody in the market for a simple straight forward analog gauge set.
