Shopper Hello! I am considering buying the Cressi-Sub Archimede II Wrist Computer during my travel to NY (I live overseas). It is a gift, and the person told me I had to take it in my hand luggage (I could not take it in my regular luggage due to pressurization issues). Is that so? Would there be any issue if I mailed it to Brazil via USPS? Many thanks!
LeisurePro S No problem putting it into your checked luggage. Luggage holds are pressurized to that same level passenger areas are, so no worries about that. Many people choose to carry their computers in their carry on, however, just to avoid rough handling. Should be no problem with USPS. I would buy some insurance on it, though, just in case it gets lost in the mail, etc.
Shopper How does one go about connecting this to a PC?
Shopper Does the computer have a compass?
LeisurePro S no it does not have a compass, check out CSBA3GC which does have a compass.
Shopper Is it adjustable to altitude dive depths?
LeisurePro S Yes. Altitude range: from 0 to 6000 m
Shopper One of the reviewers said this is NOT a hoseless system. What does that mean?
LeisurePro S It means that this computer does not show you the air pressure left in your tank, so it does not figure, in the calculation of bottom time remaining
Shopper am I buying an archimede II, but would I like to know if he constantly has some function that maintains the computer with the light lit constantly during a night dive? or if exist some other model to make that?
LeisurePro S We are not ware of any model that has this feature, because this will drain the battery
