    FATHOM Dive Systems Q&A

    Diluent can be routed in either direction, with the connector or bypass both being the top or bottom.

    FATHOM Dive Systems Q&A

    The cables are potted in the head along with all of the electronics. The end user will not be able to change the cable out themselves. This greatly improves the watertight integrity of the electronics for the HUD and the handset. That being said we haven't had anyone kill a AK-4 pin cable yet. I...

    Heated suit options besides Santi BZ400?

    As someone who has tried a Heated Santi BZ400 and was ready to buy one, I was not impressed. I ended up going with a Rofos BZ400 and a Lola Q-vest (XXL for 2 extra heating panels). Candidly I do work for a company that sells these items, but I genuinely believe its a much better solution, as do...

    Question Anyone received the New Seacraft Go! DPV

    Figured out how to mute this conversation thank god, but yes; This is most likely a component shortage. ALL of this thread is speculation, but out of all the speculation, a component shortage or supplier issue causing delays is the most reasonable conclusion by miles. Just ask anyone who works...

    what happened with George Irvine?

    I stopped Subscribing for GUE.tv a while ago, but I can assure you it WAS there. I talked about it with several friends. EDIT: 10 seconds of googling later... A Conversation with Cave Diving Pioneer George Irvine

    Jarrod Jablonski interviewed him on GUE.tv close to 2 years ago now for those interested

    Question Anyone received the New Seacraft Go! DPV

    Several of my friends have orders in for them. Huge demand seems reasonable to me.

    Question Twin setup different mixes

    Getting bent often has little to do with doing something wrong... a little bit of a red herring don't you think?

    Sidemount BCD Options

    DiveRite recently brought a new side-mount harness to the NSS-CDS winter workshop, it’s called the Nomad Ray I believe. It’s similar in style to the Xdeep or Katana 2. It’s currently soft launched and I would imagine they will be officially releasing it in the next couple months.

    Review Fathom Gemini 010

    Look forward to hearing your opinion, especially as someone who has a lot of hours on the Sidewinder.

    Bottoms of feet cold (drysuit, 39F / 3.9C water)

    This is a terrible idea and I feel like it should be addressed. For anyone who doesn’t know these heating packs work through oxidation, meaning they are essentially oxygen activated. As such, exposing these warmers to elevated partial pressures of oxygen seen inside of a drysuit at depth is a...

    JJ-CCR tank valve position

    The valves will bang into the wreck no more than a set of doubles. This is a Fathom with 3L’s and a Halcyon Evolve 40 wing. I don’t wreck Dive, but I do squeeze through some smaller caves. I’m personally more worried about the breathing loop hoses than the regs and valves .

    Tech/GUE CCR/RB80 Configuations - Wing Choice

    The biggest consideration is the width of the wing. Hose routing on the FATHOM is very simple, and I see no need for holes through the wing with our unit, other units may vary quite a bit. The Halcyon Evolve 60 works great on the FATHOM tech rig (GUE configuration/onboard bailout). I initially...

    FATHOM Dive Systems Q&A

    This would be a great question for @kierentec as he has been diving his hard since DEMA. We do not have official WOB numbers yet for either unit, though that is in the works. I haven’t had the pleasure of diving one yet. If anyone has figured out a way to clone yourself to have more free time...

    FATHOM Dive Systems Q&A

    @Marie13 Out of curiosity’s sake, did you just get the standard shearwater HUD mount off his website? If so that would be a contributing factor. Our HUD is slightly smaller than the Shearwater HUD so it would certainly slide around. To make it a tighter fit you can slide a -012 o-ring over the...

    FATHOM Dive Systems Q&A

    There is not a way to secure the needle valve adjustment. With thousands of hours of real world diving we have yet to experience or even hear of a needle valve getting “bumped” during a Dive. I don’t like to say never. In theory it could happen. If it was to happen and you are monitoring your...
