Stretch it out with a 80cuft cylinder (11L ?) for a day or two. Wet it if you want as well. If that doesn't fix it then it's too small.

I'm waiting for DumpsterDiver to wade back in on the convo.

Ah yes. I forgot about the oring extruding thing. Good point.

Why not just snug it up without the extra steps of shutting down and depressurizing? Maybe that's Tech 2 and Cave 2.

I don't because I don't fly a CCR. I dive it.

v2.0. You are not flying. You are diving. Calling the check list "Pre-Flight" is stupid.

I just paid $825CDN for a K (a fricking K) of balloon grade He. $600 US. T's are $1100CDN ($725US). Industrial is much more. Medical, forget it. Before the Karen's get their panties in a knot on my using balloon grade- I have access to a gas lab that checks this fhit out for me before I use...

Mike Young is not the founder of KISS. Gordon Smith from Vancouver is. Mike bought it in 2012.

I'm looking for suggestions on non-OEM places that service, sell parts, or sell refurbished Haskel boosters other than American Airworks. Something more west than WV would be nice. I seem to recall there used to be a place in California and a guy named Perry was the Haskel guru there but that...

Yeah, like all 40 of them who were never going to be long term divers anyway. Just some casual vacationers that got sold something while they were strolling along with their MaiTais looking for something different to do. This thing isn't going anywhere.

And lose when competing on "deaths per unit"

it doesn't make sense.

As I mentioned, I'm friends with the people that first attempted to bring Tyler up and talked to them quite soon after. I remember they mentioned about the crazy amount of weight.

Friends of mine were there (not part of the class) and were the ones that helped with the rescue attempt.

The lungs on a CCR diver are part of the loop with the counterlungs and so are part of the 3 airspaces (assuming a drysuit diver). OC also has 3 airspaces as the lungs are a 3rd airspace. Difference between OC and CCR is that the lung airspace volume changes and can be controlled with each...

Worth a shot if it ever happens. DCS can be treated. Shredded can't.

It's doable. Maybe it's the drysuit vs wetsuit factor. I've done up to 2.75 hour dives and many 2 hr dives in ~40F water. I just make sure to go immediately before a dive. Now then, I did some dives in Hawaii with a 3 mm shorty. I was on a 3 dive charter. I was cold and had to go about every...

Tanzania to Pemba Island. Cessna Caravan. November. To be fair, they weighed all luggage so I guess that doesn't count since they were more concerned with overall weight and not what my specific piece of carryon weighed. It also happened once in Edmonton. Security picked up my carryon for a 2nd...

It's page 9 on this thread. Let's do a TLDR. Don't use computers from different manufacturers and expect the same results.

Sounds like a total cludge to me. Just more things to go wrong. Like rebreathers need that. I learned about this unit last week as it was apparently sent to a hyperbaric facility in Vancouver to obtain CE certification. So since I never heard of it I went to the Lungfish website and the more I...
