    I'm sorry for continuing the hi-jack, but I guess I'll just be the bad guy in this thread. It is back-a$$ward thinking like this that has us in the position we are in, instead of working to fix this glaring problem we have with health care in this country. Let me explain so even you can...

    Canister light battery charging question

    NiMH cells takes a few cycles when new to charge to rated capacity. They also have a fairly high self-discharge compared to other chemistries so it would be a smart idea to charge as close as possible time-wise to actually diving the light. Just keep cycling (charge / discharge) the pack and...

    First time out...

    Good report. Sorry about the gun, but some good eats in your freezer. If I were you, I'd shoot as many different guns as possible before making a purchase. Going with Chad would be a great experience, just be prepared to get hooked :) I do a lot of spearing on both the east coast and the gulf...

    Pompano Beach Scuba Question

    A dive to 33 fsw is at 2 ATA not 1, so your consumption will be twice what it is on the surface. Nitrox would not make much difference since I am 99% positive you would be limited by available gas. If you are planning only one dive, don't bother with nitrox. Willem
