The unit samples and displays the desat time as it measures ambient pressure to a fraction. These changes happen more often than people realize. We could have given it a range before changing or let it do desat in real time. We chose real time and so the reason for it fluctuating as it does. Lamar Michael,

The DESAT Time starts for example with 20:30 hours then goes to 23:45 hours, then to 22:35 hours ans so on. If you watch it you can see that it will come slowly to 0 hours after a normal DESAT Time (look on another Divecomputer). But why does the time jump? The Nitek X was only on a table for look at it - no flying, driving with the car overs mountains or any other situation where the air pressure changes. Any suggestions? I am from Germany and i like the computer but i don't trust it at the moment. Greetings Michael Hi,
