Product is an interesting, and not bad, idea but the price point is a little off-putting. From what I've seen the initial price is about $300. For a little more, say 350 you can get a Cobra 1 computer or mares puck air (yes I realize that is because those are being discontinued but something is always being discontinued). If you were to get a digi 2 and a computer you would spend $300 for a digi 2 and then another 200-400 on a wrist computer (like the Leonardo or Goa etc) brining you up to 500-700 dollars, you can easily get into a full air integrated computer console computer for that. I wonder if this is the first step to air integrated computers for cressi? They already make good wrist computers, but nothing that is air integrated, why not take the next step and put their computer software into this thing and make it a full air integrated computer? I do like the self test on the battery compartment, that is novel and welcome. Next step self diagnostic regulators so you can do conditions based services rather than annual?
Hey Loosenit, goods thoughts... what we're hearing $249-ish will be MAP and a Leo or Puck can be had for $225-ish. Many many divers dive only based on tank pressure but $450 for a wrist and console units is really pretty good. The advances we will be seeing like you said will likely amaze us all... I come from Double Hose days so it's all getting like Star Wars in my eyes... but I love it !
Cuidado al Comprar esta consola Digi 2 en México, la consola está padre, lo malo es el respaldo de la marca, compré 2 iguales y una me llegó dañada, Cressi México me dijo que no tenía caso cambiarla, que así salieron de fábrica. (Si todas salieron así, no entiendo porque solo una sola de las dos llegó así).
Wow, que triste que Cressi piense tan mal, o la persona de Cressi con la que hablaste piense de esa manera. Hemos vendido muchas de las unidades Digi 2, sin problemas reales.
I like the "time to 750 psi"!
Yes kinda cool... thanks for the comment Ken ! Regards Bob C

I'm personally looking at one if the Cressi leonardo's just as a nice cheaper dive computer instead of doing charts and tables lol.
Ya, the Leo is an excellent choice and has great visibility plus is easy to use.
Ya the Leo is plenty for most diver's needs.. it's the "wants" that makes folks buy higher $ units..
I thought changing the hose voids the warranty? I would like it a lot more if it was backlit.
It does but for me I hate the thicker rubber hose. I changed mine 2 years ago and no problems..
