You should look at the Sub Gravity BP/W system. You get a choice of 3 stainless steel & 2 aluminum backplates, 4 wing sizes, 2 harness styles and 3 weight pocket sizes. Their wings don't require a STA. In addition to the standard SS 3mm backplate, they have a 6mm SS backplate that weighs 10.1...

I would look at a Sub Gravity BP/W. I have their aluminum BP, 26 lb wing, and adjustable harness. Their adjustable harness is clean, simple and no plastic parts. I love mine. https://sub-gravity.com/product/paragon-single-tank-package/

East Cape Explorers is in San Jose Del Cabo. It is the sister shop to Dive Cabo. I haven't used them yet, so don't know much a bout them but they get good reviews. https://www.eastcapeexplorers.com/

Look at a pair of Seac Pro HD boots, there 6mm though, you can get them on Amazon. I have a pair of their Basic HD boots from Amazon and really like them https://b2b.seacusa.com/seacsub/144/scuba-neoprene-gloves-socks-and-hoods/0210007/pro-hd.html

Have you tried using trim weights before buying a new wing?

I would look at the Dive Rite Hydro Lite BCD. It has a soft backplate, so it will pack better than a rigid metal backplate. Hydro Lite BCD - Dive Rite

I would look at the Dive Rite Hydro Lite. Dive Rite has been in business for a very long time, they make good quality gear and have a huge world wide dealer network. https://www.diverite.com/products/wings/hydro-lite-bcd/

They look like they have a lot of unnecessary gimmicks built into their construction. Stick with the tried & true Quattro's.

I would go with the Dive Rite Hydro lite, it looks a lot less bulky than the Hog and Dive Rite have been around forever, make quality gear and have a big dealer network. The only thing I might do is change the bottom velcro tank strap for a proper one. I was looking at the Dive Rite as a travel...

I have a Sub Gravity 3mm backplate, 26 lb wing, adjustable harness and drop down small weight pockets for my travel BP/W. I can't say enough good things about the gear or the company. I really love their adjustable harness.

My first pair of fins were Tusa open heel fins and the blades went soft. Mares Avanti Quattro + fins, they are the best all around fins and have been around for a long time with no gimmicks, just a straight forward good fin. I have been diving mine for about 20 years.

Your very welcome, enjoy your new plate.

As I mentioned in my first post, it's a pretty big & bulky BC for a travel BC but the biggest issue is that a 45 to 55 wing is way to big for single tank diving. The wing will "taco" around your tank and trap air. The biggest wing you will need for single tank diving is 30 lb. My travel BC is a...

Any amount of money is too much if it's not the proper BC for your needs. You won't be happy diving with it.

My Bad, I read $1200.

This would be a good time to start an updated thread about what CO testers are currently available and which ones are best suited for testing scuba tanks.

Whether you talking about the Dive Rite or the Deep Outdoors, you said in mint condition, which I assume means used. If that's the case it's way to much money for a used BC. If you are talking about the Dive Rite, they have been in business for a very long time and make high quality gear. The...

That's a lot of BC and the wing (45to 55lbs) is way too big for single tank diving. The biggest wing you need for single tank diving is 30 lb. Look at the Dive Rite Hydro Lite BCD, it's a true travel BC. https://www.diverite.com/products/wings/hydro-lite-bcd/
