Kevin, Black out or not you would still be able to see your PO2 displays, Many RB divers really like the shearwater dive computer and the new unit the preditor can be seen quite the distance in decent vis.

Also North of the City Here. Welcome to the board, We where in lastnight Water temps are still 48 degrees Vis was about 25 feet.

Unless you join a club who rents out a local pool thats your options. Even then they are run by clubs so joining it to contiune to use the pools would be required. Other than that i believe Scuba2000 has there pool you can use by appointment.

Reality is many dive shops don't even know better. I have a hard enough time getting my doubles filled to 3400 due to the shop operators not even reading the tanks pressures and assuming they are 2400 or 3000 psi fills.

Many find the first 20 or so hours the hardest, Just like anything your working out new gear, new weighting... You working an all new type of buoyancy control. Many will consider it a "Death Zone" as divers tend especially on Manual units get themselves into trouble as they are paying...

IF your diving in clear shallow water then no strobe is required, If your diving in clear deeper water and dont mind the blue or green haze to your shots then you dont need one. If you want clear Vibrate colors all the time regardless of your depth then you need a strobe. Shot in our dirty...

This is one of the reason i have seriously look into them. one of our beach entries are rather tough, the town has put up a rock breakwall around the edge of the lake to prevent erosion in doing so its make it rather challenging to get in and out. Now while my buddy and i are getting in he...

I know several divers CCR divers who while they love there machines tend to do there more serious dives still on Open circuit. I think one of the problems many have is the whole mixed team diving. Such as my regular buddy and I he dives a Kiss Classic and I dive OC. Any diving we do he...

CD not saying you can't i know many do and the Meg is a really nice unit. Just made the comment like that as the MCCR you have no choice. Like everything a diver has to weight the pros and cons of any paticular unit to the type of diving they are doing. YOu can go CCR anywhere from 3 grand...
