The thing I have found in the manuals for the two machines that
the Vytec does but the Quantum doesn't is dive simulation.
"Planning" on the Quantum appears to be restricted to looking up
no-stop times for different depths if you started diving again
now. I did use the simulation feature on the Nexus, but I'm not
sure I used it £70 worth. [And of course there's the third gas
available on the Vytec. Are there any all-nitrox dives which
benefit from using two decompression mixtures? I've mucked
about with a PC decompression planner and can't find any that do
(significantly)].
