Liquivision X1 Dive Computer has arrived !

2010-12-12T12:26:00.000-08:00

The Liquivision X1 represents the cutting edge in technical diving computer technology. It has been called “the iPhone™ of dive computers” for its intuitive tap navigation, readability, compact size and open software platform, which come together to deliver an incredible diving experience. While the X1 is designed for technical divers, it is fully functional as a recreational or nitrox computer and offers the same enhanced diving experience.

See what Jerzy Blaszczyk, Polish Record Holder, has to say on his X1

Jerzy Blaszczyk is leading the Infovide Matrix Diving Exploration of Sabak Ha caves from January 9-26 2010. The goal is to reach below the current known depth of 140m, possibly as deep as 200m. Jerzy will be using two Liquivision X1 computers on his dive. More information can be found at: http://www.deepexplorers.org/ (in Polish)

Jerzy comments on his X1:
I must say that I am in love with your computers!!! They are awesome, there is not the slightest thing I would change, and what I like the most is:

- the size

- the screen

- button-less navigation

- speed of ascent and descent in m/s

- floating ceilings deco

A HUGE THANKS!!!
