DESCRIPTION

Whats in the box:Computer, HP Hose, Digital Online Class

Suunto Cobra combines several technological innovations into one product. It is the only air-integrated dive computer with air, Nitrox, and gauge modes complete with profile memory on the market. In addition to the extensive information provided by the Vyper, the Cobra displays cylinder pressure and estimated remaining air time. The air-consumption of a dive is stored as a used-pressure value in the logbook memory for future reference.

The Cobra offers the new Suunto Reduced Gradient Bubble Model (RGBM), which is a unique algorithm for predicting both dissolved and free gas in the blood and tissues of divers. This development combines the latest knowledge in diving technology with the classic Haldane model. The advantage of the RGBM is its ability to adapt to a wide variety of diving situations. For added safety, the Cobra features the original Suunto innovations: separate three-step persona and altitude adjustments.

Great computer. I'm very happy with this purchase. The ascent monitor is very conservative (33ft / min) vs. recommended limit of 60ft / min. Be a SAFE diver though - so the slower the better. The recommended and mandatory safety stops are great. No fly countdown is great. Deco mode functionality is very good too. Definitely go with the QD option so you can take the unit off your BC for logging dives, travel, security, etc.

I did have some problems with the unit leaking from the QD connection. Good thing I checked the unit before I dived with it. I believe this was Leisure Pro's fault. I had to basically separate the QD from the computer and noticed that the grease they used near the o-ring had dried up and was flaking off. It was making a air-tight complete seal impossible. After cleaning it, everything was fine.

The display is great. I also love that it's air integrated. You can estimate bottom time based on air consumption during your dive. The amount of air you consumed is also available in your log after the dive. I also love the quick-disconnect hose. And setup is pretty intuitive.
There is no seconds timer for your safety stop and you can't see the seconds tick down when you are at depth. My Oceanic Veo200 does show seconds - I wish my Cobra did. I also noticed that my Cobra gave me less bottom time than everyone else who was on the boat. This can be an issue for repetitive dives and it was a little bit of an issue for me.
On another note, I bought my computer used in "Excellent" condition from LeisurePro. The computer arrived in good condition, but it was missing the clear protective cover, the compass and housing was pretty beat up and the battery had to be replaced before I could dive with it. Next time I will pay a few more bucks and buy new.

        Comments about Aqualung Suunto Cobra Air/Nitrox Air Integrated Computer Console:

        I've had my Cobra computer for 10 years and it has never failed me when needed. I have only had to replace the battery once or twice in that whole time as well. And actually, one time the battery just needed a "reset", as there is some sort of problem with it showing low battery when there is not a low battery. But I only encountered that problem once. For the most part it has worked great. The only real Con to this computer is that it is much more conservative than the tables, so if you're diving close to the deco limits, you'll be the first one in your group who has to come up in order to stay above the limit.

          Myself and 2 fellow divers all had this computer. We ALL had the computers fail within 6 months and they had to be replaced by Suunto. My replacement failed too, Suunto replaced it with a Cobra 3.

            Comments about Aqualung Suunto Cobra Air/Nitrox Air Integrated Computer Console:

            Shortly after I purchased this computer-- and only a few dives later, my computer needed repair.
            I had no problems with the warranty. Suunto repaired the computer and returned it to my local dive-shop in a very reasonable time-frame.
            I was told they needed to replace the computer; however, I am now on my second dive-computer and have used it only a few times and was experiencing new problems. Sent my 2nd Suunto in for repair only to be told that it could not be fixed and the computer is out of warranty!
            I will not be purchasing a 3rd computer from this manufacture. I pride myself on taking excellent care of all my dive equipment -- our lives depend on the gear we use. This is certainly not a case of being lazy or not following directions. I am very dissatisfied with the Suunto dive-computer.
