Well, I dive my VR3 on 20% and I dived the Helo2 on 0 setting (+/- 0, 1 and 2 being the range available). A deco dive on EAN32 put both instruments more or less comparable within a metre and a minute on every stop. The same can be said of the D9 too with DS on. But I guess the difference may grow on repetitive dives. Early days yet but for O/C the Helo2 seems a very good option.
If you are on a Vision I'd plug in another VR3 and get a second-hand one off ebay for not many beans...
Back later when I have a bit more to say. HTH, Tim

Thanks Tim that's pretty sound advice, I'll check out ebay.
I'd Still be interested to hear how the Suunto compares after multiple dives.

And their customer support (here in the UK) is second to none. There is always a knowledgable engineer available at the other end of the phone line who really understands the computers and PC software. When I made a pre-sales call regarding the new Helo2, the Suunto engineer was able have a very sensible conversation about how its algorythm compares to their competitors products. 10/10 to Suunto. But I'd also say the same of Al at VR Technology too.
On a recent trip to San Diego, my dive computer found it's way to the bottom and needing a replacement I would like to know which one(s) do you use/prefer.
