What about condensation in a warm, humid climate where the air is moist when your packing your cansiter?

I have another internet myth that I was hoping you would clear up for me. What's the deal with TDI recentyl banning their instructors from teaching on the Inspirations? What kind of back-room politics went on there?

I have seenthe units and no someone who dives one. They seem like nifty little toys to me, but i won't be getting one for some time because of two things.

1. They cost way too much.

2. I have had so many different computers fail on me with just normal cold water deco diving that I could never, personally, trust any computer to do all of my thinking for me. I am not talking about G3 speak, I have actually had computers give out on me almost 2 dozen times, usually with 45 minutes of deco left to do. Since I always carried back up tables and gauges to begin with it was not a problem, but as a result I could never trust one, or three, to maintain my breathing loop.

For those of you who trust that kind of technology I say great. I have certainly read the stories about doing an hour at 250' followed by another at 150' and then finishing off with another hour decoing in ths shallows down in Cayman. It sounds like great fun, just not in my budget or trustworthiness of any of the units.
