    repair manual

    Unfortunately the Frogkick manual is the techniquebook in French and only covers regs to 1999. So the V3, V4, V10 but not the VR.

    Where to find Battery Kit for Cobra 2?

    It is relatively easy to buy a CR 2450 battery (3.0 v >550mAh), and an o-ring, it is a standard BS 026 shore 70 (31.47mm by 1.78mm). The same o-ring is used in the EON, COBRA and VYPER, they just use different batteries. Costs $1.05 for 17 o-rings from O-rings Online Frameset.

    repair manual

    Me too!! It must be out there. At the moment I use the Dive Rite Hurricane Manual, Download the RG3500 manual from http://www.diverite.com/products/library/productmanuals/ It is the same 1st stage, the second stage I think is the VX. I have the parts kits for both and they look the same.

    DIN inserts leak ?

    Thanks for all the replies, it's nice to know I'm not the only one with this issue. It was my mistake the o-ring sizes were indeed 111 and 112. I think the rest of the problem relates to my particular regs. The diameter of the central hole must be smaller than average as it binds on the centre...

    MARP Price Fixing Update - Consumers Win!

    Perhaps a different take. When I started diving some 15 years ago, I found it hard to buy gear. There was no one shop I could walk into and look at many different items from different manufacturers. So I had to drive around to 5 or 6 different shops to see 5 or 6 different brands. Then they...

    Advice for Newbie: Computer vs Console and Integrated inflator vs Octo

    As has already been said every one is different, try a few configurations and see what suites you, also the type of diving you do should influence your gear selection. For what it's worth I like the Octo/inflator, more streamlined, one less hose, and for air share, donate primary and breath of...

    DIN inserts leak ?

    I wonder if there is knowledge about this issue? I have tank valves with DIN inserts. These were supplied by Scubapro? The problem is they don't take a standard 012 o-ring and in fact it is difficult to fit any o-ring 010 or 011 without it falling out all the time. I have a total of 6 DIN...

    Suunto Cobra 3 3D compass

    I have one and it is fantastic. I found with my SK-7 I was forever tilting it and shaking it to stop it sticking. The Cobra 3 gives you a bearing no matter what the tilt. The only problem that I have is the time it stays on. This is adjustable, but once you have turned compass on you can't turn...

    Leisure Pro Pricing

    Of all the goods that I have bought, I have never had a warrantee claim. I guess the percentage of returns under warrantee must be less than 1%. So just like when the Hi-fi store offers me an extended warratee for extra cash I turn it down, I turn down the manufacturers warrantee on scuba gear...

    Diver to diver etiquette

    I have been thinking latetly about the ethos of diving, and this thread has given me a space to vent my thoughts. With all these enraged, outraged, offended, individuals there will soon be a new pathological diagnosis "dive rage", and there will be appropriate anger management courses for...

    Suunto quick disconnect o-ring?

    Thanks a lot for your help, I will follow up on those suggestions, and let you know which one worked! The local Suunto importer, had 1 in stock when contacted, and since my family have 4 of these disconnects, that's not good enough.

    Suunto quick disconnect o-ring?

    I seem unable to find a supplier of the BN90 3.8 X 1.5 mm o-ring to replace part no. K5168. None of the on-line suppliers seem to stock this ?non standard size. If any-one can suggest a source I would be most grateful. Seems like this is going to be the one to wear, and I can only imagine the...

    Dive shops Vancouver

    I will be visiting Vancouver next week, and am looking to buy some dive gear. Could you recommend a dive shop that stocks Beuchat, Dive Rite, and /or Suunto. My hopes are not high, but if there is such a place, I would like to look in while I'm there. Thanks.
