I have a used Hollis Prism 2 and I was getting an issue with the 3rd cell dropping out. It was intermittent. If it happens, it usually comes back by the next day. When it happens it ramps down to .00. So I pinged Shearwater and Hollis. I cleaned the already great condition harness between the 3...
Okay, it's been forever on this one. So after the first setup burned up in a giant smelly mess (no exploded 18650 battery) I tried again. The 2nd time, I decided to leave the electronics that drive the LED flashlight in place since it was pretty precision with the placement of the hall-effect...
I was thinking something like this, where one side bolts to the two existing frame mounts. The top having the pin to secure it, the bottom being angled in such a way that the bottom goes in first and is captured.
The tank side would be rounded off.
Rough idea (not to scale, I didn't take...
Hello all,
One thing that is a bit of a weak point to me on the Prism 2 is the tanks. They strap to the unit using velcro, which seems great as far as speed to replace. But without a stand, the weight of the unit on the tank valves (which have rubber shock absorbing bumpers) tends to push the...
Hit up the ol' Phoenix with StuartV and Jeremy Williams.
What an awesome weekend.
5 mil wetsuit and 1 mil gloves, no hood. Good to 35 feet for long periods of time. Dipped to 51ft or so. Don't have computer for exact numbers with me and haven't downloaded.
The point where you're at the bottom...
That unit in the earlier picture.... I have the same unit, only mine is a tad bit older. I bought it used from eBay after thinking they seemed pretty cool and of a really streamlined design. Prior owner of the one I bought used it to escape the country of Dubai after they were holding him...
Meh, the electronics on most seem outdated but there is no hints of any new developments in the pipeline?
AFAIK the CanBus is vendor specific. Is the protocol open? There are $2 OLED screens that could be made into something like a readout only nerd2 type device (ppo2 of 3 sensors) for $5 in...
You should be able to charge 100 devices on a 2 amp USB chargers (iphone, ipad, etc) from a 15 amp 117v circuit. That's a lot of cell phones, and they will only draw that much when they're empty. Of course larger scooter and pro video batteries might use more. Chaining power strips is really...
Hello! I was there last Sunday finishing up some training.
Looking at pics I took of computer to show friend in Florida, on one dive:
Max temp was 79 degrees, minimum was 43 degrees
Max depth was 83ft.
It wasn't blackout conditions. I could see around without light at the bottom, moonlight...
On my last trip to Utila I flooded one of my cheap lights with Seawater. It was powered by one of the beloved, super cheap low quality 18650 Lithium Ion batteries. It got warm. I held it away from me, just in case it was going to pop and lacked any sort of burst disc. It didn't. Upon opening it...
From what I remember the early news reports were that it was very foggy. That might of made it difficult to see shore. This is based on early news reports, I am not presenting it as a fact.
