You are definitely correct on that.

Thanks! I appreciate your description of Gauge mode. Extremely helpful.

Man, the more and more i watch you guys the more I relate this stuff to Aviation and want to learn Diving so much more. When we fly, we have to adjust for the Magnetic Declination as well as different variances that acceleration and deceleration has on it. You guys are truly awesome! This channel is going to go so far.

These guys just got me started on diving. I've been pursuing a private helicopter license and so much of aviation applies to diving.

My husband and I just bought the Peregrine and we love it so much! ❤️❤️

Awesome job. Excellent talk on the compass setup. I didn’t know that.

I love your vids. These tips are awesome and though I don't use shearwater, these options are on my dive computer and your description of what they are and how to use them is very very applicable to other devices! Thanks gus!

The gauge mode setting is sooooo helpful!

Agree with other comments. Music made it really hard to focus on great content.

I knew about gauge mode but never used it, and never thought to use that for classes, thanks!

I just got my Perdix! Thanks for this!!!!

Can we get a tour of the podcast studio? Always curious about how many monitors you have crammed in there lol.

This was useful, thanks! Could you some day explain, how do you use the SGF (surface gradient factor) on your Perdix?

Hi, for adjusting to True North on dive coms without True North adjustment, could we just re-calibrate that dive com at the dive location itself? Would it be the same as manually adjusting for True North on the Perdix setting? Been trying to decide between the Perdix and Atmos. Thanks!

Great content! I love your videos. Do you have got problem with function button of the peregrine ? Mine doesn't work anymore, just after few dives 😔

I think your understanding or at least your explanation of magnetic declination is off. I don't think changing this is safe for most divers also. There is magnetic declination anywhere you go because the magnetic poles move in regards to our maps. If you are using a map to determine your heading, then yes, you need to compensate for that just like when backpacking in the Sierra Nevada's where there currently is a magnetic declination of about +13 degrees. My NatGeo maps for backpacking actual tell me the approximate annual declination deviation amount so a person can calculate the declination based on the current year and the year the map was printed. If your dive guide tells you to follow your compass to a "Heading" of X degrees, and you have a declination set, then you will likely cause the situation you are trying to avoid. This is because the guide is using a magnetic compass reading based on experience, and not calculated declination. I can see this feature being useful as a cave diver (I am not a cave diver as of now) who might follow maps drawn to previous declinations, but not navigating open water or based on directions from other divers. I'm a new viewer to your content, liking what I've watch so far. Keep putting out good information and trying to make diving safer for everyone. Cheers, and Safe Diving

+1. Setting the declination is only necessary if you need to follow a bearing based on "true" north (which maps use)... and you don't want to just add/subtract the declination from the given number in your head.

Keep up the great content 👌

What do you think about the Teric compared to the computer that you are using in this video?

Thx again Gus.

Another tip with the perdix if you’re diving with a group that may be doing skills or training you can adjust your end of dive cut off from 60sec to say 120 to avoid it coming up with logging multiple dives because you had to surface with the group or your buddy for only a matter of seconds to a minute as part of the planed dive resulting in one log not 2 or 3

Thx Gus.

I remember getting a digital bottom timer when they first came out, and thinking that was some pretty high tech stuff.

My twin boys are 14yrs old, we have just started diving. I am a rescue diver and my twins have just past their advanced open water with Padi here in Ireland Last I dive a Suunto and my twn James dives a suunto also. My other son dives a shearwater perdixj, it took me weeks to save the money to buy the Shearwater for him. His shearwater was stolen from a dive site 2 weeks ago. Can you help as I know you are a shearwater ambassador. Please help if you can. We live in Ireland. Thank you for any help, i am a great fan of your talk show.

Hi Jim, first of all I’m proud of you and your boys for diving as a family, that’s awesome. I’m so sorry his computer was stolen, that’s so awful to hear. I’m not a Shearwater Ambassador (they actually don’t have any ambassadors) but if you have the serial number I can submit it to Shearwater and have them blacklist the computer so if they ever get it in for service or whatever they will know it’s yours.

I love my Garmin but these have my interest.

music was to loud otherwise great video

Instead of manually putting in plus or minus numbers for the compass, wouldnt it just be better to just recalibrate it once you are at your location?

@robschannel9229

2 жыл бұрын

The compass will not point to true north after calibration, it will point to magnetic north. The difference between magnetic north and true north on a map changes depending where you are on earth. That is why there is a feature to input the deviation of magnetic north and true north. If you only care about pointing the compass at an object and staying on the heading underwater, then changing the deviation doesn't matter. It mostly only matters if you are referencing a map or instructions that reference true north.

I couldn’t care less about diving but I still love the channel

If you’re doing a tutorial or review maybe lower the volume of the background music? Or remove it? I actually bailed on the video before you finished because of the music. Sorry. Great info though.
