    Dive Site Security Question

    The only key I would worry about getting wet is the kind with the remote made into the key head. Every key that I have had with a "chip" in it has gone diving with me & never failed to work. I have had most of them down over 200 feet. They all still worked fine.

    Weights.... DIY?

    Lead has quadrupled in price in just the past two years. China was exporting 60% of the worlds lead supply. Now, they export NONE. They are using all they can mine.

    This is a silly question but here goes anyways

    The 8 aluminum 80's are rigged as stage bottles. That are not doubles. Each tank has it's own regulator, second stage & pressure guage. Each tank also has MOD (maximum operating depth) markings on it to let the diver know how deep he can be while breathing off it. They all contain different...

    Mixing your own Gas (Home Brew)

    Mixing is like diving. There is a certain amount of risk involved. If you have the proper training & are careful & diligent, the risk is small but still, it is there. It is not an unreasonable amount but it may be more than you are willing to accept. Don't let fear of the unknown stop you...

    Panic Attack

    Great job on being able to get back in control. I agree, it could have been narcosis or it could have been CO2 retention. Both can cause those feelings. Severe CO2 retention leaves me with a headache that lasts for a couple of hours.

    Neck Pain

    I agree. Call DAN. Just in case. It could just be a pinched nerve. If that is the case, a visit to the chirocopractor is in order. It happens to me every once in a while & nothing can fix it but the chiropractor. It takes two or three days after a visit before I'm back to normal but I notice...

    Diver killed by lightning in FL

    Well, I don't know about the "exponential something or other" or about the "1^/ whatever" but I do know that last year, I was diving with my son & a student when lightning hit the lake about 100 yards from where we were. It passed up all them TALL, TALL trees around the shore & hit the low, low...

    How accurate should of a digital gauge is needed for PP mixing?

    The .5% FS will do everything you need. Mixing is as much art as science. You will learn you have to have a "fudge" factor in your mixing & that depends on your particular "style". It won't do any good to have a gauge that is accurate to .0001% when your fudge factor is "between 20 & 35 psi for...

    Crazy secondary air source behavior

    One thing that can cause a second stage to "breath wet" is the exaust valve. It can be torn or have a hole in it or be folded along the edge or sometimes, just out of position. If your first stage has a pressure creep, it usually shows up as a leak on one of the second stages. The first stage...

    Time for a Bit-O-Fun

    From your description, it seems like if you get too close to the end of the pool, you get a trip through the culvert.
