Just received mine, they're really compact and bright. :) Anyone have suggestions for a new O2/He analyzer ?

The Divesoft is pretty sweet, but I got an ok deal on a Pro TriMix.

I use a tried and true analox, but I would probably vote for a divesoft as well. They seem pretty trick.

Note: I just realized this was a helium only analyzer... not the oxy/he unit.

I was checking out the TruMix 4001 Trimix Analyzer, any good or bad stories ? The Divesoft does seem pretty trick, just not sure I can afford the pole attachment. :)

I use the tru mix 4001. I love it. Easy to use, quick auto cal and long lasting battery. Been using mine every weekend for at least 3 months now and have yet to charge the battery.

If you decide to get one, my buddy bought one as part of a package deal when I got mine. It's brand new, never used and since he uses mine, he is looking to sell his.
