My Originals work great for SCUBA. I prefer them to my Pro s.

From Manado, it will take about 1-1/2 hour taxi and 1/2 hour boat ride to get to Nomad Divers in Bangka. Nomad's can arrange for the transfer. Bunaken to Manado is probably a half hour on a boat. The first time I went to Indonesia I spent 4 days in Bunaken, 3 days in Lembeh, and 7 days on...

WOW. My transmitter woke up dead after sitting six months, and this fix actually worked!!! Thanks a LOT.

As I remember, it adjusts the distance between the orifice and the seat. There is a complication in that the rotation also disturbs the alignment of the internal airway, thus the limited adjustment range before airflow is cut off. I found no perceivable difference in ease of breathing due to the...

The d400 is a great regulator, but it is kind of tricky and difficult to find someone who can work on it. It has an adjustable venturi, but it is internal and accessible through the mouthpiece with some difficulty. Both the Legend and the D6 are easily adjustable for venturi and cracking effort...

I, too, use a d400 as a primary, but I wouldn't choose another d400 for a safe second. I use an Aqualung Legend or a DGX Gears D6.

Cairo itself is busy, noisy, and dirty. But there's a lot to see in Islamic architecture. Across the river are the Pyramids which are a lifetime event. Navigating the streets of Cairo is a constant hassle, but the rewards are substantial if you have an interest in the history, art, and culture.

I generally find the value of a thread is in inverse proportion to the number of replies. Sometimes known as clickbait. And I'm not really bothered by why and how and with what equipment others choose to dive.

Now you're up to 120 kilo? Or does she fly Economy Basic?

I can pack my BP/W, shorty wetsuit, Force Fins, Mask, Reg set, 2 pairs of shorts, 3 Tee shirts, rain parka, hoodie, and a minimum of personal/ support items in an airline legal carry on. I also carry a maximum sized personal item (bag) for valuables and overflow. The main bag probably weighs ~30...

Why add something you don't really need?

Obviously you have to be careful when buying any used equipment.

Yes, but I was being conservative.

My normal plug for the d400/d350 second: 95% of the TFX for 1/5 the price.

There are three new TFX 2nd's listed on everybody's favorite auction site @ $1350. Also a new yoke full set for $2150.

Have enough dives that you're comfortable underwater. IMO, AOW is mainly a way to get a variety of dives in a supervised scenario. AOW certification potentially opens a lot of diving opportunities.

Has @Scuba Lawyer been at the AI again?

I've been diving a d400 for about eight years now. IMO it's the best second stage I've ever seen (never seen a TFX :)). I maintain all my regulators.. except the d400. The d400 I send to @rsingler. He has the parts and the knowledge to work on them. I think buying a d350 as a new diver would be...
