A small package with easy use, it'll make you a spoiled diver in no time.
I'll post a review since.. well that was what I was looking for and none seem to exist. No one wants to throw down the cash for this without knowing how good it is, so I'll put it simply: This little guy has spoiled me enough I don't even wear a Teric anymore.I live in Hawaii and dive weekly, I've been diving this for about a year, and before that the shearwater teric, and honestly almost every piece of gear I can get my hands on, from a Geo, to a Cobalt 2, to a Garmin Descent. I landed on teric out of the display and data. Since then I moved to this nerd 2. Both see frequent use, but my teric is now reserved for sidemount diving, because it makes no sense to have my nerd on one reg, and due to a nice large display of my transmitters on each tank. If I'm diving anything else, the nerd is it. So...First thoughts1. Admittedly superior to the scubapro HUD, in a few ways (easier on the eyes is big), but primarily the compass. The nerd compass tracks like all shearwaters, smooth as ****.2. Smaller, more out of the way. This sits for me in my bottom right, and I almost never notice it. I can even point it down and away on night dives until I want to see it.3. It fits on my Full face mask with a simple movement from reg to reg whereas others do not.4. The display screen is crisp, clean. Very much like a perdix.Cons:1. While weighing almost nothing, it does the tiniest bit. So you have to set it at the beginning of the dive while holding your mouthpiece firm, and know that if you dive lazy like me it'll drift down slightly until you want to look again. Then just snap your jaw tight. I think this is simply.. the aspect of having it on your reg.2. No dim control. I mentioned before night diving with it. I honestly debated swapping to my teric for its night mode. This guy is briiiiiight at night.Other than that I legitimately have fallen in love with this. It has spoiled me immensely, both diving with a friend, or teaching, or taking DSDs. Want to cross a hundred foot trench at 45 feet? No problem, no need to keep looking at your wrist. Just power across. Safety stop while holding onto 4 inexperienced divers? Done. You got both hands buddy.Its expensive, but it is so. Totally. Worth it.
