TEST STATS 4 (VERY GOOD)

PERFORMANCE
The Zen Air is an advanced, full-feature dive system, capable of programming and wireless switching of up to three transmitters with mixes up to 100 percent O2. The system does not default to a standalone dive mode in the absence of a transmitter, and divers must deactivate the transmitter function in the computer manually, which was not explained in the user’s manual. Testers liked the easily read tank-pressure indication and the Nitrogen Loading, O2 Saturation and Ascent Rate bar graphs on the perimeter of the main display. Most testers found the main data display easy to read.

LIBERAL OR CONSERVATIVE The most liberal computer tested. There is a user-activated conservative factor.

BOTTOM LINE The Zen Air is a full-feature dive computer at a reasonable price.
