I have been thru 3 of these computers, having to send them to Oceanic in exchange for refurbished unit. They frequently fail or suddenly stop reading pressure from your tank. Not user friendly (much less so than many other computers). I have decided to buy a new computer and will not purchase an Oceanic in the future.

For the price this is THE transmittor dive computer to purchase. Large face, auto functionality is wonderful and intuitive without using the manual, even on the first dive--as long as you are not doing anything out of the ordinary (nitrox, advanced functions etc.). Flashes between two screens showing depth, time, air left, and NDT, safety stop, etc. on the default. Easy to read. Where I think divers get intimidated by this computer is on the advance functions and attempting to set them.

I have been using my VT Pro for several years now and it is used regularly while servicing our local aquarium.

The flooding issues that have been reported here are the result of improperly securing the battery compartment. It's a little tricky to accomplish and I would suggest practicing it (a dry run....get it!) a few times to see what I mean. If you're not sure or not comfortable do it, bring it to someone who can.

The faulty transmitter reports can be summed up in two words: battery and depth. Batteries die...slowly.

Depending on the frequency of use in and out of the water, the battery will drain. Not rinsing the unit properly will allow salt deposits to build up around the water sensor and it won't shut off. That little tidbit of information is in the manual.

Depending upon your depth and distance from your first stage regulator (that's where the sending unit is attached), the computer will stop communication with your sending unit and go into post dive mode. Returning the unit to depth will trigger the connection to resume. SO, picture yourself on a shallow reef, kind of skimming the surface, hovering around 3 to 5 feet. You get the picture.

I'm very happy with mine and for your reference it is used every other weekend in salt water...could be our 76 degree reef exhibit, 60-ish penguin exhibit, or one of our 45 degree mammal exhibits.

Read the Manual…multiple times, keep it clean. Now go dive!

I got this computer used, and it was shipped wtih batteries that needed to be replaced. After I replaced both batteries the computer worked flauless on my first dive. It was in very cold water on New Years day in Ohio. Water temp 40. It worked without a hitch. Still worried about the batteries, but there really easy to change.

Great initial experience - until the battery compartment flooded. Keeps cutting out after receiving factory service. I am no longer trusting it.
