    I need a tie breaker

    Tomorrow (June 6, 2019) at about 10 p.m. CDT (0300 UTC)) I am going to order a canister to put my PLB in. I can't decide between the Custom Divers canister or the Hdvseatek canister. I have to order tomorrow in order to get it by July 1. In my opinion they are about equal in function and...

    Tell me about your Snorkel (POLL)

    About 5 years ago I took mine off and put it in my bag. Last year someone on the dive boat needed a snorkel during a SI so I pulled it out and loaned it to them. Not long after that I needed to do a long surface swim. I didn't have a snorkel. When I got home I ordered a foldable snorkel and...

    Anti ScubaPro bias?

    When I got my first set of gear the only option was ScubaPro. I got my SP MK V and 2 R109's. I still use the Mk V and one of the 109's. The other was replaced by a SP G250 when one of the 109's was leaky. I was told it was a bent cylinder. It doesn't matter. I got SP because it was what...

    Dive Tables VS Dive Computer

    Two comments here. 1) Handwriting is becoming obsolete. In my grandchild's school, they no longer teach cursive writing. I am furious about this but can't do anything about it. How will they read historic documents which were hand written. I guess someone will summarize them and put them on...

    PLBs Can Save Your Life

    @DandyDon Why do you recommend the smaller choice. It would seem that you could utilize the extra space (don't know how much extra there is) to carry something vital. Or is it just wasted space? Cheers -

    The Teric's Battery Performance.

    I'm running out of places to put a charger. This is especially true when I'm on vacation and in a room that has ONE plug for the television and ONE plug for the bedside lamp. I have to plug in my phone, dive light chargers (2), my computer, and maybe a camera. Next question? Cheers -

    How much of a factor is age in scuba deaths

    And gases. In time age will always be THE contributing factor to death. As was stated earlier "On a long enough time line, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero. -Chuck Palahniuk" :) Cheers -

    Love me some Shearwater...but Cloud sucks

    What us folks who prefer to use Mr. Gates' software rather than Mr. Jobs' software? (Isn't it interesting how both names end in "s"). I might should change my last name to end in "s". That way I can be worth millions, too. :) Cheers -

    Love me some Shearwater...but Cloud sucks

    I don't like cloud either. Can we go back to the old Desktop version, maybe with a FEW of the cloud s/w features? Cheers -

    What's wrong with Cozumel in July?

    I live just north of Houston, TX. Coz is hot and humid in July, but I feel like it isn't as bad as where I live. It may have something to do with why I'm there. Or maybe not. Cheers -

    Recommendations for first computer

    I have two different AI computers. One of the expensive ones and a cheaper one. You don't have to use the AI computer with a transmitter. It works fine. I like my "expensive" one because of the ease of use, intuitive operation, and BRIGHT screen with LARGE letters/numbers. It is wrist...

    What's wrong with Cozumel in July?

    July and August are my favorite times to go. I plan to go mid-July for 2 or 3 weeks depending on how I feel at the time. I'm looking forward to it. I always stay at the same place. It has a pool where I can spend my afternoons if I so desire. Just chillin' Looking forward to seeing all of...

    How much of a factor is age in scuba deaths

    Looking back, I think I actually tried to do both at the same time. I was unsuccessful. I guess I was too young. Cheers -

    Question about air integrated computers and transmitters

    I have two wrist AI computers. I carry a 2 spare transmitter , an SPG on HP hose, and a SPG / Depth console in my spares bag. I don't plan to lose a dive. I have 3 transmitters and have on occasion used two of them at the same time on a dive. So far, no problem with interference. If you...

    Poor diving techniques I noticed during this week's trip.

    Maybe that's why no one has said anything about my bad technique to me. They're putting it on FB. Since I don't do FB I've never seen it. And probably never will. Yea!!!! :yeahbaby::)
