A.I. is the future! Everything You Need To Know About Air Integration, sponsored by Shearwater

[@scoobydover]

My dive buddy/father has recently been investing quite a bit into dive gear, as we both recently received our Advanced Open Water certifications together and have never owned our own gear, other than the basics. That being said, he’s been absorbing all the information, reviews, KZbin videos and all that he can in hot pursuit of attaining the best gear. Divers Ready has been brought up a few times in conversation because of that, which has brought me here. I’m so eager to gather my own gear so that my father and I can start working our way towards Rescue Diver and so on, and I’m very grateful for a channel like this that’s so informative in regards to such things. Thanks for the content! I look forward to furthering my diver education and equipment with your guys’ help! P.S. There’s plenty of gear on my wishlist, but in regards to AI, Peregrine TX seems to be at the top of my list as of now (thanks to my buddy 😏)!

[@ManuTheMagus]

My diving journey has just started, i can finally say that i am a certified diver as of today, completing open water and finally completing a goal i had set for myself 43 years ago, and finally accomplished. My dream destination, wish i hope to accomplish within the next few years is Yonaguni Islands in Japan. It is known as the Japanese Atlantis and it has an air of mystery around it that just looks awesome to be in as a history and archeology lover. Thanks for the opportunity and the valuable info that you always bring to your videos! Much love!

[@eamonshields2754]

Congrats on your certification and the incredible adventures that now await you 🤿 safe diving

[@ManuTheMagus]

@ thank you!! 🙏🏼 🥰

[@H60Blackhawkmtp]

I just need more dives, so I would go just about anywhere. Any of the Pacific WWII battle sites would be wonderful.

[@dawnstevenson3911]

My dream since beginning my collection of diving certs has been to have Teric w/AI. I always enjoy and find your content quite helpful. Thank you for giving me affirmations and guidance on the brands you promote.

[@DiverAquaMike]

Great video, as usual. You guys are so professional and knowledgeable of gear, I love watching your videos for tips. I would have to say that my Dream Dive destination would have to be Egypt at this point. After watching the video you made of that, Im convinced. The water looks so warm and inviting and so clear. But that will be on my list, as well as some others. Thanks for the video. I personally use the AI Peregrine TX and I love it. I would love to have a Perdix 2 as well, but that will come later. Great job guys..look forward to your next video :)

[@GeoffWhite-q9b]

Thank you for the excellent videos! It's revived my diving career wiht my 16 year old son, and we're looking at the Peregrine TX as a next gear purchase. His first Key Largo trip we loved the Spiegel Grove! Though a dream destination remains Galapagos.

[@myrtheschouten7405]

Recently discovered the channel and absolutely love the videos! Atm I'm saving up for my first ever complete set of gear and was planning to buy a shearwater computer.

[@justintimeski]

Divers Ready is one of my favorite KZbin channels for diving info. As a relatively new diver (only a year and a half and just 89 dives so far) I don't; see myself as a the diver anytime soon but I have heard so many good tihings about Shearwater Research and I think I would really love to have the Peregrine TX or the Tern TX with the transmitter.

[@flo_fries]

Love the content James, look forward to every video you release. I just purchased my first Perdix 2 6 weeks ago along with a SWIFT transmitter…2 weeks ago I bought a second Perdix 2. I absolutely love them!! Today I started my tech diving journey, starting with Tec Sidemount followed be Tec 40, 45 & 50. Therefore next on my equipment wishlist is a sidemount reg set and a sidemount BCD. Up high on my destination wishlist is a sardine run in South Africa and watching schooling hammerheads in the Banda Sea!!

[@ricardoalbertocorreiadeagu984]

Came across your channel recently and loving your content. Thank you for all valuable information and keep it going! My dream diving destination is the Galapagos island.

[@chrispuchala8447]

Been looking into getting more scuba gear lately. Your videos have been a great help!

[@morganames8142]

I have owned the Shearwater Petrel and two Petrel 2s for sidemount diving. I'm always upgrading with my Shearwater computers as they introduce technology. I'm currently diving with a Perdix 2 Ti with Air (breathing gas) Integration and a Petrel-2 (as a backup) in my Tec Shorts on every dive when diving in Backmountt configuration ... typically in wetsuit or rashguard in tropical "destination" dives (Florida Keys, Bahamas or Caribbean, etc.) or temperate water (North Carolina wrecks). When diving in Sidemount configuration (usually when Drysuit diving) during the late Fall and Winter, I wear two Perdix 2 AIs (one on each arm) and each has an attached 2-1/2" SPG on a 9" HP hose, as backup. LOVE SHEARWATER PRODUCTS!!!! DREAM BUCKET LIST TRIP: South Africa's Sardine Run diving -- with You!!!! Cheers!

[@michaelseybert6883]

Thanks so much. In an airport headed home from a Bonaire trip where my old watch computer transmitter failed. Looking to your channel for help with my next AI computer purchase. Shearwater is definitely on my list

[@tristanb70]

I can’t wait to get further into diving. I love the whole Peregrine lineup from Shearwater and am looking going getting the Dive Talk GO to start my rebreather journey. Love the videos and the information.

[@Raybrienza]

James, great video as always!!! I always like Divers Ready!!!! My favorite dive destination is the coral beds of FIJI off of BegaLagoon. My dream dives (Bucket list) are Antarctica, Truk/chuuk Lagoon, Silfra Iceland Entered contest. I currently dive with a Shearwater Perdix AI.. purchased in 2018ish. It is the best computer that I have had. My 1st computer back in 1984 was The Orca Edge.

[@djones688]

Good morning James! I love your advice and love all your reviews!! Thank you for always taking the time. I have an eye on the Shearwater Perdixs 2. Right now I'm sporting a Garmin m2ki. And my eyes, (or should I say age age?!) have gotten worse and I can barely read it anymore... So I need to get something more legible, that I'm able to read. So hopefully I'll be able to come up with some money and get one someday soon! But I wanted to give a shout out and give you a big thank you for all that you do!

[@krkovacs]

Happy user of a teric, super durable and reliable computer, backed with a swift! Would love to have a second swift for the stage set. I enjoy wreck diving, so obviously Truck is on my bucket list! Keep up the good work, your channel is great and informative!

[@grene1955]

Great timing! I'm currently looking a new dive computers to replace my 22 year old Suunto, and I have been leaning towards Shearwater. Now I'm taking a serious look at the Peregrine!

[@OctaneGames]

Another great video! Definitely need a new dive computer to keep up with my busy summers of diving locally and teaching. Old one has to get the boot. Goodwick to everyone!

[@greatagent]

Thank you for this content. Awesome video. Just purchased my first Shearwater Perdix 2 with transmitter. Used it on a night dive and that thing is absolutely amazing. I have been diving since 1985 and i don't know how we survived before AI. I feel much safer underwater now. Keep doing what you do. :)

[@peteboyde4375]

Great Video James !!! My dream dive destination and hopefully next trip is Malta to complete my technical training

[@RussellTyrrell]

Very informative videos... I always look forward to watching them when you post new content and the bit of kit I've got my eyes on next is switching to long hose primary donate with a set of miflex xt tech hoses hopefully santa will drop them off

[@scuba_steve3630]

Great video James! i am looking to add a strobe for photography as the next scuba gear with a trip to antarctic on my bucket list.

[@CK-tn2lf]

New to diving and researching gear before buying my first set of gear. I like the detailed good and bad information these reviews are. Thank You!!

[@Tailortravelexperience]

Thank you for all of the content you provide. I have really enjoyed watching your videos. The next gear purchase I want to make in the next coming month or so is the ScubaPro G2 dive computer (wrist) style. I'm currently using a Cressi computer that I'm not very fond of so I feel it's time to upgrade. Also, my dream dive destination right now is the Florida Keys.

[@DamienRamsey-i7t]

Great video. My dream dive is probably Bonaire, and will be making that trip soon. Great content my wife and I enjoy watching the divers ready channel.

[@kilo1175]

My next dive tech purchase is definitely an AI transmitter for my Garmin mk3i. I've learned a lot from this channel, thank you for sharing your knowledge!

[@drich4567]

great video, thanks James, I really appreciate your no nonsense approach

[@JonneyReay1968]

Hi James, Loving this Shearwater content. I would love to have a Shearwater Perdix 2

[@MMLife-n5l]

Love your open and honest videos, my next bit of dive gear has to be either the Peregrine or Perdix, my eyes need a larger screen. I would love to dive the Navy Pier at Exmouth Western Australia. Keep it up James

[@b.h.8421]

Love this channel....ai only on dive products,not their story telling and commenting. Tips from this channel saved me life.

[@allengibbs3733]

I just got the Peregrine TX after watching your videos along with... the transplate / Voyager XT wing and XT1 / Xt2 reg set from your real world reviews. Love what you provide for the community and was a huge part of me getting back into the sport. Cheers! I would love a SWIFT transmitter to pair along with my new baller computer!

[@bloodyhellharry]

Great Video! My next dream dive kit is a backplate and wing setup, and twin cylinder.

[@matcunningham9921]

Thanks for the content James. Next big purchase is going to be a Dive Master class.

[@jeffreylansinger6999]

Hey James first wanted to say thank you for all you do for the dive community, and a personal thank you for giving me something to watch on the way to work. I have been looking into possibly getting the perdix 2 Ai for about a month now since birthday is coming up was going to treat myself but let’s see.

[@Gstrowes]

I've been diving AI for about 15 years now. I'd not dive without it, It's such a useful tool. Real time gas consumption lets you manage your dive in far greater detail, Last year I was in the Red Sea, off Sharm el Sheik, we were drift diving a reef wall at between 30-40m, my gas remaining was looking a little iffy, so I came up a few meters, and watched my gas time adjust on the computer to a point I was happier with. It's a very nice thing to have.

[@RPeterson2088]

Thanks for sharing this information! I bought my Peregrine last year and it’s held up great. My only regret is not being able to little more patient! Had I been, I could have held out for the TX! The TX is now at the top of my wishlist - though as an aspiring future tech diver the Perdix is definitely in my future

[@martink.8132]

Many thanks for your excellent videos! My personal top of the bucket list destination is Silfra.

[@David-p9i6c]

I appreciate that you use sponsorship that you believe in. I’m currently using a Ziegler SPG compass/pressure combo. Would love the Peregrine TX and Swift transmitter.

[@09093452179]

I’m using the peregrine dive computer and I’m in love with it can’t wait to get an upgrade to pardix2 because I’m going to start Tec diving . Shearwater is my go to dive computer 😍

[@diegocarraro3603]

On my wish list is the perdida 2. I could try one on my last dive and it was amazing. Thanks James for all your tech videos. Always with amazing content.

[@curtisleblanc1880]

Love the content as always, James. I am also a huge fan of my Shearwater computer and would love some Shearwater swag to go along with it. Fav dive destination so far? Cozumel! I love the reefs and the cenotes! I see you are traveling for some great diving, now get on up here to the great lakes in Canada and we'll show you some awesome wrecks! -From a loyal Canadian follower

[@henryzawacki2389]

im new so i need everthing but i do enjoy the videos and information it really helps!!

[@Seekfriend]

Just started this beautiful sport and got my OW certificate last week. Keep up the pushing great content James!

[@DiverDO71]

Love my Shearwater. Started with the Peregrine then upgraded to the TX for AI. Love it!

[@CarriocaMatey]

I did my Open water cert 10 months ago and after my mask/snorkel & wetsuit - the Perdix 2 was my first main purchase. Mostly because i could struggle to accurately read my SPG. The dive store who were training me were good enough to lend me a transmitter for my first 8 dives. So impressed am I that I have just purchased the Swift transmitter to use for my advanced OW next week. Then hopefully on to my dream spot cave diving with sharks at Fish Rock!

[@tooslow8150]

Truk is my dream dive spot. I'm following your trip can't wait to see the videos.

[@fredr1]

I have had an eye on the Perdix 2 for a while. Love the big screen and loads of info.

[@colinLethbridge-j5e]

Great Video As always Keeping it simple & easy to follow! Would love a shearwater, however my next new piece of kit, would be new fins!

[@brinh123]

Argh!! Thanks for the throwaway line about the high pressure spool! Local dive shop sold me a pig tail for me last time I got a service but never mentioned the spool. Last trip I gave up on the pigtail thinking it was duff. I’ve just fitted the spool

[@marcdaniel1347]

The day I finally sat down for a couple hours to calculate my average SAC rate with our furry friend from Endor... this comes out. Coincidence? I think not ;) I want to thank you and all contributors who align with what you all aim to do... to make diving as fun, safe, and beneficial for all of us as possible. Been enjoying this channel for over a year now since I started scuba diving in early 2023, and you have greatly helped me to make proper decisions and critical thinking in my dive skills, gear, and who I go diving with. I have learned about amazing gear and other products (especially from Shearwater and Dive Rite) thanks to you. That said, the top piece of gear from Shearwater on my wishlist is the Perdix 2 Black with a Swift Transmitter. Glad to see you enjoying your trips, and wishing you all the best on the next ones of your journey. Thank you James, once again Cheers

[@bnash8992]

Love the video, currently diving Perdix2 with Peregrine backup. Wishing for 2nd Perdix2 as my backup for tech screens on both 🤞

[@Scuba_Rawb]

My dream dive is to go on a Nautilus dive. Definitely one of my favorite forms of marine life that I have on my bucket list to go see in person.

[@chad-mc]

New diver here and so thankful to have found this channel!

[@NoStopDiving]

My dream dive destination is deep dive Dubai.

[@joshuajohnson4313]

Hey James, as usual great video. As a diver that first had an AI computer back in 2003 when Suunto Vytec was all the rage, I wouldn't go back either. As to location bucket list... Truk Lagoon (Chuuk Lagoon) Micronesia for sure!

[@SpruceGoose86]

Already a Shearwater owner and love their products! Currently run a Perdix AI but would be thrilled to also get a Teric to join the dive-watch community. A dream trip for me would be the Red Sea…lot of family interest in Egypt and would love to travel there! Great videos! Love to content and info in them!

[@marcvorste6031]

I really like your videos, I find them super informative, it's just fun to listen to you and I've adopted many of your tips, keep it up!!!! Would be on my wish list Shearwater Perdix 2TI black Sparset mit Sender

[@scubamarka]

Great Channel, Would love to visit the Truck and enjoy the Peregrine TX A.I. Thank you for your no nonsense Videos and staying true to your channel. Cheers.

[@abrahamtomahawk]

I normally dive while on holiday, but I want to start diving back home. But as I'm from the Highlands of Scotland, I'll need to buy a drysuit! So that's top of my wishlist.

[@rltitoun]

Love the channel ! Looking forward to buy either a Tern or Perdix AI ! Dream destination is definitely Galapagos!

[@marcthompson1884]

Took my new Peregrine TX for a week of diving in Cozumel and love it. Truk is on my retirement bucket list!

[@petermeyer243]

My next fabulous bit of kit to add to my setup is a Shearwater NERD2 for my Sidekick, super keen on that.

[@berniewong7983]

Great video. I monitor my wife and daughters gas pressure when I am diving with them. I prefer to mount my transmitter on a pigtail hose because I have seen a helpful staff (but it could also be a helpful fellow diver) try to lift the tank and BCD by the transmitter because they mistook that for the valve.

[@TheOrdinaryScubaDiver]

Dream dive destinations (plural) Sorroco, Galapogas, Lord Howe Island, Azores, Scapa Flow, Ceontes, Truk. Problem is there are so many and so few days in a lifetime left. PS the Peregrine Tx is awsome for recreational diving - 20 dives in and no way would I give it up.

[@sebastianguerraty6413]

I actually bought my perdix 2 because one of your videos and now that I finally got my first reg my next target is a sharewater swift. We dive cold waters down in Chile and different conditions can change the consumption a lot without noticing. I've had Galapagos on my bucket list for years, but have never managed to organize a trip there. I guess bat island in CR is probably a close second that I'd also love to do. always great content :D

[@adityal]

I've just picked up a Shearwater Tern TX, and I'm really looking forward to finally diving with AI. I was eyeing the Terric for the longest time, but the Tern came in at the right time, with all the features (and plenty more) that I need with my current skill set, and a pretty irresistible price point. My dream destination? Easy. Raja Ampat. There is something magical about that place. And the dive sites are all incredible.

[@stewartstewartstewart]

Gotta pay dem bills man, fair play! I also love Shearwater so totally know you’re legit when you say you stand by their gear. Keep up the great work!

[@DiveandLearn]

Great video as always! Lately been adding more out of the way dream dive destinations😂 Felicitas Mine in Germany is the newest one!

[@DJ_Death_Star]

Well as for where I want to go, thats an easy one. Truk Lagoon in 2026 with the Divers Ready group. After watching your videos, especially the one with Pete, in the spirit of making sure nothing stops the diving in Truk, I will probably buy another computer so that I have a spare. My PeregrineTX is awesome and I love the screen size due to old eyes, so either a 2nd Peregrine TX or maybe a Perdix2.

[@dnheller]

Really want to dive Truk. Next class is MOD-1, trying to figure out which RB to get. Thanks for the great video as always James!

[@retlod]

Love your content, James! My wife and I both dive the Perdix AI. Best location so far would be Roatan, but we would love to start exploring SE Asia.

[@in.depth.productions]

I absolutely love my Teric; loved it so much I got one for my wife. Now I am considering the NERD, or the Pergrine AI as my back up or make my Teric my backup and one of these 2 my primary.

[@teambiteme3153]

As I am looking to progress in my training to advanced wreck and intro to tech, my choice for next computer is definitely going to be a Perdix. Dream dive destination is Chuuk Lagoon.

[@PiotrMorawski-j6r]

My dream dive is on Maledives. I have never been there but I hope that I can go there one day and enjoy that amazing location. Water, beautyfull nature and peace.

[@michaelmccrorey4973]

Great video and information as always. My favorite Dive destination so far has been the Cayman Islands

[@hbzeke]

Great video. I’ve got mine set up with pig tails, just seams safer & helps with my long reach. Palau & Raja Ampat are bucket list locations.

[@rizikranger]

I would love to upgrade my son’s computer from Aqualung to Sherwater Teric. Amazing watch, computer and company.

[@thesloopjohnb]

Great explanations and tips My current dream dive destination is Antarctica

[@ryanchormanski9408]

Love ur vids, uve helped me be a better dive

[@ethansmith8872]

Next dive item on my gear wishlist is a Perdix 2, I just got into technical diving so I need a computer to keep up! My dream dive destination would be some of the cenotes in Mexico!

[@jsarche]

I've had the good fortune of being able to dive at Roatan three times during the past few years. I love it there not only for the incredible diving, but the beautiful scenery and great people I've met. I've loved my Peregrine computer very much, and if I were upgrading today, I'd definitely go with the Peregrine TX.

[@FarrahStroud]

Great Barrier Reef. Thank you for your informative videos

[@sandergranien567]

I’m new with diving, me and my friend went to Miami in march and did a snorkel dive with sharks. We fell in love with the underwater world, and want to explore more with scuba tank. We are about to take our open water course 16 of desember. I have already done my e-learning with PADI. I would love to have own equipment one day. Can’t wait to dive!

[@henrygreer1026]

Shearwater Outstanding computers, great segment from Canada!

[@pavelpetliuk]

I love Perdix 2, love Sherwater and your chanel James

[@quintthefishingwolf1716]

My dream destination is definitely the Great Barrier Reef. Also need to get my transmitter hooked up at some point had that on the back burner for months

[@larrykelley8120]

I currently have the Peregrine TX and absolutely love it!!! On my wish list is a DPV or a kiss rebreather. I’m headed to Bonaire in February for the first time I can’t wait

[@lightningfast140]

actually a dive computer has been on my wish list for quite sometime now.

[@poolsideview3716]

I really want the tx. Seems perfect. Socorro is my buck list dive

[@RemoteViewr]

Good points all round. Also IMO mounting the AI transmitter on a short 6” HP hose is essential to avoid deck staff accidentally picking up the tank / rig by the transmitter. Also essential to make sure no one turns on your gas except you: do it very slow and steady to avoid damage to the transmitter.

[@loganj0]

Just finished my AN/DP cert. A new shearwater with a transmitter would be an awesome primary computer

[@CharlesDrew-s2b]

Shearwater perdix AI would be awesome!! Roatan has been my favorite dive. So far . Keep up the great work!!

[@terrys7114]

Perdix 2. Thanks James. Great channel and content.

[@derrickkunstmann3699]

Next big purchase on my wishlist is the Perdix 2 AI with 2 transmitters. Im a cold water sidemount diver and next year is my first foray into the caves of Vancouver island!

[@smartinsrj]

Great video. Definitely the Plura Cave as a dream destination.

[@carlosnegro88]

Thank you for all your content (and all the giveaways 😉). I would love to go diving to the Galapagos. I really like the Tern TX with the transmitter to complement my kit!

[@mgelax]

I finally got my Perdix 2, next I would want is the TX version of the Peregrine. It's great for when I'm just doing simple recreational dives, my wife and kids can use it, or it would be a great backup when 2 computers are needed. My favorite/dream dive destination at the moment is Fiji. We have a group of friends that go every other year and that would be so much fun! Yes, the place is important, but any great place becomes fantastic when you're with friends!

[@AndreasEcon22]

Dream Computer is always going to be the newest Perdix. I have a Peregrine right now, but as a future tec diver, a Perdix is a must-have. As far as dream destinations go ,Galapagos and Komodo are at the top of that list. Cheers from Cyprus

[@theependleton]

Love shearwater products! I’ve been looking at a Perdix a lot recently
