I’m a technical diver, and I would use it with my two Shearwater dive computers for dives under 40m. If I’m happy with it I might do some recreational diving with it alone. I would be shocked if it doesn’t support nitrox. It won’t be much use other than as a fitness tracker since I use EANx 32 for most dives. The GPS would still be good, and it’ll be interesting to see how the compass compares to the Shearwaters.

As a diver I'm keen to see how it works as a dive computer. Looks like the depth sensor may not be very accurate, but it'll be fun to check out. At least now my diving will get logged as a workout. If the API is public maybe I could write my own dive software to run on it just for fun. The fact that it logs GPS coordinates of entry and exit is also really cool. I can't tell you the number of times I'd wished I had GPS coordinates of a wreck after I'd dived it. I'm stoked!

I drive a Chevy Silverado. I placed a pre-order for the Cybertruck and expect to make it my next truck. I expect to be made fun of by my pickup truck driving friends, but I'm ok with that. Hauling used to be a big thing for me, but now I mostly just use the bed for scuba gear, so I'm not so worried about range while hauling. I'm looking forward to saving on gas while driving to dive sites.
