It’s part of the renowned Mares dive computer lineup (and a more affordable option of the popular Mare Quad Ci), which has been trusted by divers worldwide for decades. The Quad 2 is designed to provide real-time data and insights to ensure your dives are safe, efficient, and enjoyable.
The Mares Quad 2 is more than just a dive computer; it is a sophisticated instrument that integrates advanced technology to provide divers with critical information during their underwater adventures. This device is equipped with a range of features that enhance its functionality, making it suitable for various diving environments, from recreational to technical diving.
Key Features of the Mares Quad 2
- Advanced Algorithm: The Quad 2 utilizes the Bühlmann ZH-L16C algorithm, which is recognized for its precision in decompression calculations. This algorithm allows divers to customize gradient factors, tailoring their diving experience based on personal preferences and dive profiles.
- Multi-Gas Support: One of the standout features of the Mares Quad 2 is its compatibility with multiple gas mixes. Divers can utilize air, Nitrox, and Trimix, with the ability to switch between up to five gas mixtures. This versatility is crucial for technical divers who may require specific gas configurations.
- Crystal-Clear Display: The segmented Chip-On-Glass display technology ensures that vital information is easily readable, even in challenging underwater conditions. The display is designed to provide clear visibility of depth, time, and other critical data.
- User-Friendly Interface: The Quad 2 features an intuitive four-button interface, allowing divers to navigate menus and settings with ease. This design is especially beneficial for divers who may need to adjust settings while submerged.
- Decompression Planner: The built-in decompression planner includes a surface interval function, enabling divers to plan their dives with greater accuracy. This feature is essential for ensuring safety during repetitive dives.
- Logbook Capacity: With the ability to store up to 100 hours of dive profiles sampled every five seconds, the Mares Quad 2 provides divers with a detailed logbook of their underwater activities. This feature is invaluable for tracking progress and analyzing dive performance.
- Bluetooth Connectivity: The integrated Bluetooth feature allows for seamless syncing with smart devices. Divers can update firmware and share dive logs through the Mares app, enhancing the overall user experience.
- Altitude Adaptation: The Quad 2 automatically adjusts to changes in ambient pressure every 20 seconds, making it suitable for altitude diving. This adaptability ensures that divers can safely explore various environments.
- Long-Lasting Battery: The device is powered by a user-replaceable CR 2450 battery, which supports up to 100 dives. This longevity is a significant advantage for frequent divers who rely on their equipment.
