The Liquivision X1 represents the cutting edge in technical diving computer technology. It has been called “the iPhone™ of dive computers” for its intuitive tap navigation, readability, compact size and open software platform, which come together to deliver an incredible diving experience. While the X1 is designed for technical divers, it is fully functional as a recreational or nitrox computer and offers the same enhanced diving experience.

The X1 as purchased by you is computer hardware only, and it will not operate or perform any function until you
obtain and install third party decompression software (“3rd Party Software”).

IMO, there is no better dive computer on the market at this time for technical diving, or recreational if you chose to use it for such.
Liquivision's support is second to none. I originally purchased a used Gen 1 X1 which failed on me after a number of dives and to my surprise they replaced it with a new Gen 5 version and had it mailed to me on my vacation. Since then I have purchased a second X1 as a backup on tech dives.

As most know, the readability is incredible at just about any angle, which I have found not to be the case on the Predator's OLED screens due to the large Plexiglas face. You also have the ability to chose the firmware (software) you install and have a number of different deco models you can chose from. VPM B/E, GF. (I currently am runing MultiDeco on both of my X1's) V-Planner live matches up almost perfectly when cutting tables / planning a dive with the X1 running V-Planner Live or MultiDeco.

The tap interface is superb when using thick gloves and the menus are extremely easy to navigate. One of the best learning curves of any tech computer on the market.

I'm glad to see DRIS has picked up the Liquidvision line.. I'll be purchasing a XEO from then as soon as they are released to replace my Galileo SOL I've used for recreational diving.

Verified Buyer
I've been considering a purchase of an X1, and upon inquiring of DRIS, they brought it in and became an authorized retailer for it. I'd like to recognize Mike Pederson for the excellent service he provided during this sale. There was a brief delay in shipping due to revisions of the product by Liquivision, but I received it in short order and had opportunity to dive it this weekend in a cavern (Bennett Springs).

It performed flawlessly. The depth compensating strap worked OK - but I think I'll replace it with a bungee mount down the road. (Its not the same displayed in the picture - but more of a neoprene strap.) The tap interface worked well, and I found the software (V Planner Live) to be intuitive and feature rich. Loading the firmware initially and syncing the computer with my log after the dive were straight forward and went off without a hitch.

My only complaint was after the dive. When the display is on low - its plenty to read in a cavern environment. But bright sunlight completely washes it out - I couldn't read it at all. I had to find some shade to change the brightness back up to high again. :)

Otherwise, I really like this. It should serve me well near term for short deco - and down the road for trimix.
