An innovative interface designed exclusively for divers. A sizable display and operating panel with three large buttons guarantees user-friendly operation. The user using just a coin can replace the battery. Other things that really sets this unit apart from the pack is you can program 2 different mixtures into it - so you can use one mix for the dive - and another for your safety stop. Computer has a Luminescent face for low light situations, visual and audio alarms, works for both air and nitrox, display backlighting and much more.

The pressure features the Lumi-Nova luminous face. TUSA is the first company in the world to incorporate Lumi-Nova light storage dials, a groundbreaking innovation offering several times the brightness of conventional dials, as well as longer luminescence times. The entire face glows bright enough to make it ideal for night diving or diving in dark areas but contains no radioactive materials.

Pressure Gauge comes equipped with high pressure hose and has bright red low air indication from 500 to 0 psi.

A top and side view compass with rotating bezel and lubber line completes the trio.

All Three gauges are incased in an impact resistant rubber boot that features dual clip or lanyard eyelets toattach gauge's to your equipment.

Comments about Tusa Tusa Compact DC Hunter 3 Gauge Console (SCA-343):

This was my first computer - received as a gift for finally taking the plunge and getting certified. Loved it and had no problems with it whatsoever...until I had to purchase a new laptop that was preloaded with the 64-bit version of Windows 7. TUSA does not make a Windows 7 driver for the LogBook software, and according to the email response I just got from their customer service department, they have no plans to release a driver for it, either. Bummer! (I would recommend this dive computer - but only if you have an earlier version of Windows.)

Comments about Tusa Tusa Compact DC Hunter 3 Gauge Console (SCA-343):

Too conservative and it will shut you off for 24 hrs if you violate the dive tables i.e. ascent and decompression. This is fine however, to have no use for 24 hrs is a bit too long plus there is no way to shut off the audible feature. This is no good if you are spearfishing.

Comments about Tusa Tusa Compact DC Hunter 3 Gauge Console (SCA-343):

Its an okay unit. It is too conservative with it calculation and I had problems shutting off the the audible feature even after a overnight SI. This cost me stealth move while spearfishing and attracted seals to me while diving in Neah Bay.
