    Article: Is the Dive Watch Dead?

    I do a Zulu strap on my Seiko SKX007 dive watch for that reason. Even if I were to lose a pin, there's redundancy there.

    Closed: Strobe package

    I did! Exactly what I was looking for, but unfortunately too good to last. Thanks for the heads up though!

    Closed: Strobe package

    Looking for a gently used strobe package for Nauticam RX100m5. Ideally Sea and Sea YS-D2, 2x 8 inch arms, 2x 5 inch arms, cables and clamps. If you have anything that might fit the bill, let me know. Open to partial trades as well. Thanks.

    NASA Treasure Map -Cooper's Treasure Show?

    Did the show get cancelled? I haven't seen it on for a couple weeks.

    I was told by shearwater recently that they were going to be bringing this functionality out around the end of the summer.

    diving fitness?

    I find that CrossFit is great fitness training for divers. It's truly functional fitness, so it touches all aspects of diving. Lift heavy tanks? No problem. Long periods of exertion from finning hard into a current? Not a sweat. Short bursts of power needed to lift that wreck off a trapped...

    How to electrically release a buoy ?

    I recently met a guy working on a similar project for his senior design project in college. I actually bought the tank off of him when he was done with the project. I think the goal was to be able to trigger a lift bag that could return an anchor to the surface. Anyway, he sent me this video of...

    How would you clip this light??

    Digressions always welcome! I do think you missed the configuration for telling scary underwater ghost stories. In that case you will need to have a light clipped and illuninating your face from below for dramatic effect. :popcorn:

    How would you clip this light??

    True, but it would also introduce another point of failure that could accidentally open.

    How would you clip this light??

    Great to know. I was actually wondering about that. Probably makes sense to store it like that as well to prevent battery drain. Thanks.

    How would you clip this light??

    A picture truly is worth a thousand words! Looks like a great solution! You have the security of the bolt snap on the hard mounting point, and the light is still able to sit in a proper, streamlined down facing position. I'm totally copying this! Thanks.

    How would you clip this light??

    I think I understand what you're saying. That sounds like a great idea actually. Almost like slinging it like a tiny stage bottle. I can even use some rubber surgical tubing so that the clip doesn't scratch the light. I made a really rough drawing of what I think it would look like, but I would...

    How would you clip this light??

    For sure, I'll let you know what I end up going with. I have a heavy duty retractor on my console that would easily support the weight, but it might get annoying to hold it out in front of me with constant tension after a while. The coil lanyard might be a better option.

    How would you clip this light??

    Yeah, as much as I would like to keep it on my shoulder, this light may lend itself to attachment at the hip instead. One good thing is, even on my hip, the light should remain pretty streamlined because it's so compact.

    How would you clip this light??

    Need suggestions for clipping this light to my shoulder d-ring. It's a big blue TL3100 Supreme. I was hoping to use my new oxychek raider light sock, but the light is wayy too girthy to fit in it. The soft Goodman handle that comes with the light from big blue has a plastic ring on the right...
