FS: Shearwater Petrel with VPM upgrade GREAT SHAPE

**navycaver** · 07-16-2016 07:22 AM

My birthday was great this year.
Not only did I get a new Go Pro, but the wife gave me the go ahead to upgrade to a Perdix.

I have had this computer for about a year.
I believe it has around 200-250 dives total, I will have to verify that when I get home.
IT HAS THE $60 VPM UPGRADE INSTALLED

Had Shearwater upgrade it to the gold plated battery plate and spring as soon as I got it.
It has functioned perfectly!

Has Firmware v34 on it, I can download v37 just released if you want me to or you can do it.
Has the original straps that were trimmed a little, but I am a big guy and dive in a Neoprene Drysuit so it should still fit almost anyone.

I am in the mountains and will be home late today 7-16 and can provide any pictures that are desired.
It has a couple small marks on the original protective film on the screen protector.
No gouges or heavy damage.
Perfect display when on.
This Petrel looks pretty darn good for a cave divers computer.
Also includes 2 spare unused battery o-ring from Shearwater.

$550 with VPM upgrade shipped to the USA.

Got a PM with a question:
My apologies I thought just saying Petrel would designate it as
Petrel-1.

Thanks for the question.

did you buy it new?

**navycaver** · 07-16-2016 10:05 PM

No I bought it used a year ago.
That is why i sent it to Shearwater to have the gold plated spring and contact put in the battery compartment.
There was an issue with some Petrel-1s that did not have this. So I asked them to upgrade it
It has worked perfectly.

If my memory serves me correctly the petrol 1 does not have the compass feature and the Petrel 2 does? Any other differences?
