Been busy diving

Good class yesterday. Steady improvement.

The pink swim ring is not part of my gear.

That's a shame.

Got my own Trimix analyzer - Divesoft Solo. It arrived yesterday.

Redid the rigging on my deco bottle. Moved the worm clamp down a good bit. Took the “handle” off. Top leash is rigged like I do on my primaries, just with thick bungee instead of paracord. I may have a small bungee for the valve coming from the same top D ring deco bottle gets clipped to. Diving at the local quarry Saturday so I’ll play with it a bit. Looks like our next class day will likely be in the next couple of weeks.

Getting the pro flow limiter for the Divesoft made using it 1,000,000 times easier for me. That 0.2 lpm flow rate requirement makes using it on tanks with the supplied "limiter" a massive pain.. if you can, I'd recommend getting the pro flow limiter with the tubing to take it to the Solo analyzer.

Funny you mention that. A friend had recommended that and I got to try it out yesterday as he was at the same dive site. I’ll be getting it when I place my next DGX order.

That's a shame.

Maybe an ankle floaty?

I was very wrong on my vacation time accrued with the new job. Pulled out the handbook and figured it out. Looks like I'll have almost 8 days by Christmas. That would allow me to spend the week before Christmas in cave country, either fun diving or half of full cave, if I'm ready. So excited, I'm bouncing off the walls.

The only fly in the ointment is I'm waiting for my boss to approve my vacation request. Fingers crossed!

Good dives today at Pearl Lake on the IL/WI border. Someone actually got a decent uw photo of me.

Above photo is relevant to recent discussion on top mounted deco bottles.

Thank you! Lot of hard work on my diving lately. I’m probably taking next weekend off just to veg. Work has been pretty stressful lately.
