    Travel Miles Credit Card Recommendations

    Sorry not really going to answer your question specifically. If you are an international traveler, i highly recommend getting a Charles Schwab account. It's free and you can put money in it. Then you can use the card to grab cash via ATM anywhere in the world. Here's the kicker, they will pay...

    US Dollar and Buying from Overseas Suppliers

    @marsh9077 I'm looking at buying some gear online in some EU countries. However, the price includes taxes. How do i know what the VAT value will be and that it will be removed? Do i have to contact them or does the VAT get removed some other way?

    Question FFM 'oscillating' on inhale

    Make sure you strap it on in the correct order, it's centered, you don't over tighten it, your hair isn't between the seal and your face Sounds very simple but I think it takes about 10-30 dives to figure out how to do this correctly consistently

    A total lack of situational awareness.

    Yea. I've had many dives ruined due to awful divers. Either to help them, end the dive, etc. Also seen ridiculous things such as people trying to touch/ride animals for pictures... After completing our first invasion, i'm probably going to go to as many as i can. The level of other diver...

    Neutrally Buoyant Material pads for harness?

    My xdeep Zen harness is a bit rough when i'm diving tropical water. Would like to get neutrally buoyant material to put as padding for the harness. Does anyone know where i can get a generic one or material? Any other recommendations welcomed. Otherwise, i'd have to buy xdeeps 3D meshpad.

    Question Best Batteries for Handheld Lights? 1x-2x batteries

    What battery sizes would you consider? Min/Max number of batteries would you want in your light? I tend to like the 22650, people tend to like the 21700. Unless I need a really small backup light, 18650 feels undersized versus other options. I like 1x-2x batteries and open to 3-5x batteries as...

    Am I being a wimp about these dive plans, or is this how you become a better diver?

    I would note. If you are not used to getting narc'ed and know your typical narc'ed limits... If you are going to do a 100' and you are anxious or scared. When you get narc'ed you will be have those feelings 3x stronger at depth. That can be a major issue if the environment/people you are diving...

    Octopus and Safe Second

    I'm sure everyone will chime on the cons and i agree it isn't the best choice most of the time to do this. When i do recreational diving i prefer to use my FFM. In this case, i will have my safe second bungeed to my neck in case i need to bail on FFM underwater. Of course, this means i need to...

    Southern California LDS -> 02 Clean or Just VIP

    I'm a little confused. If you are getting banked 32% why do you need a special 32% O2 VIP? O2 Clean is only for higher than nitrox O2 %, usually for those getting partial pressure O2 mixes. Pacific wilderness will O2 Clean your tank and give you whatever mix you want. I don't know if their...

    Why would a dive shop want to buy my used tanks or not?

    Each instance was talking to the shop owner... If I was to put look at it from his side, maybe he had no idea what the tank prices are that he buys them for / sells them for / rents them for. And finally looked right before I came by. Then realized it wasn't worth it. EIther that or he's slimy

    Why would a dive shop want to buy my used tanks or not?

    If I start to see this as a pattern I will out them. I'm just going to let it go at this point. I was a bit upset afterwards. I thought for sure they'd take a HP80 for 150 @@. Ty all for allowing me to vent. I want to hear more about your CL stories. Seems you survived your Circle K stabbing xD

    Why would a dive shop want to buy my used tanks or not?

    I'm a little perplexed. Do LDS buy used tanks or are given them for pennies? Long Story I went in to my LDS to get hydro done on a HP80. I was selling it for 150 + hydro covered by buyer. The dives hop said they'd buy it in a heartbeat at that price. I let them know I was about to start selling...
