I am new to this forum, and didn't find an answer to this question.
I am a rec diver, who is in need of a new BC.
Deciding on a back inflate, I had the Oceanic Excursion in mind.
However, I was over at one of my instructor's place (who is also a tec diver), and tried on his DiveRite TransPlate with 2 Steel 80s.
This was a tad heavy being a little guy, but it seemed to fit nice.
Being a rec diver, I would only be using a single cylinder, but I liked the fit, and the advantage of a SS backplate adding weight (I use very little as is); and would have to add very little extra to a belt or pouches.
I would like to hear others opinions on this matter, and about your experiences.
Your advise is greatly appreciated.
