The XS scuba universal springs are nice if you have more than one fin with different strap mounts and want to share them or think you might change the type of fin you have. XS Scuba Universal Spring Straps --- bill

I just went through this on a on a 2 1/2 year old SeaLife housing. (Which uses a similar post, e-clip and o-ring design on the buttons as the Canon Factory housings) I had just one button that was intermittently sticking. I called the SeaLife factory and their suggestion after careful rinsing...

I'd say there is a good possibility that there is nothing wrong with the computer. Consider some rough calculations which should be good enough. Planes tend to have cabin pressures equivalent to about 7-8 thousand feet. The pressure at that altitude is about 10.8 to 11.6 PSI. That...

Wow, that mounting system is pretty nice. Solves all the issues. Now if they could offer them with heel cups and pull loops, they'd have it all covered. --- bill

Just to clarify. The issue with the plate coming off is not that the mushroom head slips through the smaller keyhole opening.When the plate is not under tension and the fin bounces around a bit while the fin is being held by the strap, the the plate can slip forward and allow the mushroom head...

I have fins with the mushroom type pin holder. I intentionally picked the version with the plastic buckles. The reason being that I too was concerned about the metal plate cutting the mushroom off. While I've never heard of this being an issue, with the all metal or "pro" version of the...

Sorry about the late/delayed reply. Not sure how I missed the new posting. After re-reading my post I see the confusion. We started with the non spring strap version of the Bio-Fins and were upgrading to spring straps. So what you are missing is that I guess I wasn't completely clear that...

There are several things you can do all of which will help prevent fogging. I've got about 150+ dives with my dc-500 and I no longer have any fogging issues. Here are the things you can do: 1. Use Moisture Munchers I always use these and they do help but these alone will not solve the...

I think that the best bang for the buck right now has to be UK SL4 series lights. $20 for the incandescent version $50 for the SL4 eLED version. There is a pretty good discussion about lights in this thread over on the ScubaToys forum. I have a pretty lengthy post (#10) about lights and...

I'm really curious as to what failures you have seen. Can you share anymore details about the failures? What do you mean by "took a dump"? Were the 2 failures the same/similar? Did the batteries die? Had the batteries just been replaced? Was it during dives? During/after a PC download?, 1st dive...

My wife and I went to CocoView back in June 2006. Here is a link with information and pictures from our trip. Bill and Terrie's CocoView Trip --- bill

I really like this one. It logs 100 dives. Its very small, lays flat, and the pages are waterproof so spills of water don't curl up your pages. My wife and I stick them in a ziploc bag that we use to keep it along with the pen. I'm on my third one. AquaExplorer Diver's Log Not too...

Well, while I do agree with you that different folks will perceive things in different ways, and instrumentation is the only true way to get unbiased repeatable scientific data, I can't agree with your comment about the biggest difference between the "perceptions" of how a regulator breaths...

Not really wanting to drag up or add anything to this old thread. I just wanted to update/correct the link in case anyone runs across this old thread. Updated link: Bill & Terrie's Roatan Adventure --- bill

On my regulator it is not a small difference when looking up. The increased effort is more than just perceived or noticeable. I have an Aeris Atmos sport regulator. If I am head up feet down vertical in the water, the more I look up it will progressively get harder and harder to breath up to the...

Cool. Glad its working for you. I really like the ATMOS AI too. My wife and I now have 170 dives on ours. No issues, other than occasional download synchronization with the cable, which is due to residual moisture and is easily resolved. When the time comes, you will love how easy it is to...

I think you have a misunderstanding of the main display. It shows a "Dive Time Remaining" or DTR which is the most limiting time: AIR, N2, or O2. See page 18 of the manual. You were probably air limited on the 90 ft dive as well. (or at least the computer thought so). The Air time...

My wife and I went there last summer and had a great time. Here is a link to a WEB page my wife did: Bill and Terrie's CocoView Trip --- bill

I got mine from ScubaToys - but they are my LDS about a 10 minute drive from my house. I was quite surprised that they had it in stock. --- bill
