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...

There are other sensors like heat detectors that can trigger on rate of heat change. Smoke detection isn't the only option.

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...

With emergency lighting that comes on when alarm is triggered, and maybe blinking illumination around egress points. Tech is cheap.

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.

It appears the audio is half duplex but the part where the Coast Guard is asking the boat crew if they can get back to unlock the door to allow the passengers out....

Nope, sold a few months ago. (Final four training dives next weekend I hope?)

I'm sure it's all speculation. It seems rare any real answers ever come out about any of the CCR incidents. As someone else pointed out, large potential there is video footage which could shed some light. But community as a whole might never be included on any findings.

If it's a Shearwater it will indicate on display, with a total lack of offset weight motor (vibrator) or audible alert. No idea why they left those off?? The O2 sensors only see what is in front of them and take a slight bit to respond as well.

Higher rate of incidents. Apparently he guessed right.

From the article: "It is understood that he had been diving to a wreck some 70m deep and was returning to the surface when he lost consciousness." Doesn't sound like a case of splashing with the O2 off. It would require custom valves but it wouldn't be that hard to bring valve open/closed...

Hello, I would like to purchase

Been a while on this one. I haven't given up. I rebuilt a 2nd laser diode into flashlight using some things I learned. I left the original driver board, and tried to use the LED output to trigger a transistor to fire the laser diode. This way I could pull power straight from the 3.7v 18650...

Two updates to this! First off, I contacted Shearwater and did some testing with tursiops. Replacement transmitter arrived just in time for some diving next weekend! Super huge props to Shearwater on this one. Quick response to support inquiry and timely resolve. Makes me love my awesome...

CCR I believe?

Much thanks to tursiops! Met up with him today and cross checked transmitters/computers. It's definitely my transmitter that is at fault. More to come!

Checked it, turned off AI mode then turned it back on. No change. I used deoxit on paper towel, carefully wiped the points of contact between the battery cover and and ground leads. Good call on shorting it out to discharge any capacitors that might be holding memory over battery changes that...

Ah thanks for the info. I swear I googled it before and it didn't show up. I didn't think I had it, but at last... I don't hear anything (AM, FM, etc.) Will ping some friends and test with their xmitters and/or computers. If I can get one of them to bring it over, I'll post a video if it's...

Perdix AI, has been working great for 2+ years. Single grey transmitter. Before a trip to Utila (after 7 days of diving) it did say the transmitter battery was low. I had replaced this battery before the trip, it seemed a bit odd as it was a recent swap and the factory battery lasted much...
