The Swift allows divers to carry multiple transmitters reliably. The collision avoidance protocol allows for multiple transmitters to be used at the same time with a lower likelihood of dropped communications. The Swift is designed and built in Canada for demanding divers of all proficiency levels.

The Swift was designed with the use of multiple transmitters in mind. It “listens” for other transmitters in the vicinity, and dynamically changes its transmit interval to avoid interference.
It works with all pre-existing Shearwater AI computers, and likely to work with computers from other brands that use MH8A marked transmitters. However, operation with dive computers from other brands cannot be guaranteed.
4-transmitter support has been added in a recent free firmware update to all Shearwater AI compatible computers. This new feature allows the gas pressure of up to 4 cylinders to be viewed simultaneously.
The Swift has many improvements over legacy Shearwater transmitters:
Der Transmitter ist wirklich ein zuverlässiger und sehr hilfreicher Begleiter bei den Tauchgänge. Mit einem Blick auf den Tauchcomputer hast du alles unter Kontrolle, auch die verbleibende Zeit bei dem gerade anstehenden Verbrauch. Wirklich sehr hilfreich. Ich möchte es nicht mehr missen.
Swift Transmitter is a great product and it take a lot of stress from your shoulders while doing side-mount or tech dives (when having more than one cylinder)
Amazing piece of hardware, never had an issue with if for over 100 dives. thanks to Lucasdivestore for the very fast delivery.

I bought this transmitter together with the Perdix 2. Setting the computer up and adding this transmitter was quick but it did require a bit of back and forth. First you need to enable AI mode on the dive computer and then you can setup the transmitter which just means adding it’s serial number to the dive computer. The transmitting starts automatically. I compared the air levels that were shown on the perdix 2 with my mechanical pressure gauge and they matched perfectly.
Super Transmitter, zuverlässig- bis jetzt kein Verbindungsabbruch. Sehr leicht einzurichten. Dank des neuen Designs ist auch nicht mehr mit einem Ventilrad zu verwechseln.
Really compact, good design
The transmitter works perfectly, the order and delivery went smoothly and on time.
Everything was fine - I will definitely continue to shop at Lucasdivestore.
Alles was zeer vlot verlopen van bestelling tot levering. De zender van shearwater was dan nog eens scherp geprijsd en was eenvoudig te installeren en werkt perfect.
Lucas Dive store service is great. Quick dispatch, great packaging with very fast delivery. All special requests taken into account. The price is the best in Europe at this stage. Thank you Lucas Dive store, it was a pleasure doing business with you.
Regarding the Shearwater Swift Transmitter it’s definitely well build. I personally like how Shearwater wrote their manual giving you the part number of the o-rings used in their transmitter and their properties like hardness and material, so every user can source them locally. Moreover Shearwater made great video showing how to replace the battery step by step. Another thing I like is that Shearwater are honest that their electronic devices can and will fail eventually and they recommend you to have alternate source of information like analogue SPG in this case. Philosophy that I like.
The transmitter comes in very nice small case with shearwater branded carabiner.
I would say there are several major benefits this transmitter has:
1. The transmission protocol is reliable, with collision avoidance algorithm;
2. There is green indicator on top of the transmitter showing if it’s transmitting or not;
3. The battery is user replaceable.
However there are things that can be improved:
1. The transmission range is quite limited - with transmitter on the right side of the body and computer on the left hand, with hand down close to the body the computer looses connection. Once the hand is extended, the connection is restored. Condition that is expected as higher transmission power will consume more battery, but I consider it as an area for improvement.
2. The process of battery replacement requires a special hex screwdriver. If you forget it somewhere you can’t replace the battery.
Overall I’m satisfied with this purchase.
