Obituary for Bartholomew P. Malone at Gardner Funeral Home, Runnemede Many of you knew Bart. Bart was one of the most enthusiastic divers I have ever met. The NE dive community, his family and friends are all mourning the loss of what one of the NE Dive community elite recently called "our...

Does anyone have feedback or experience on the new light monkey heated top? Ive been holding off getting heated undergarments for a few years and this may be the year.

Is Bare working on or coming out with a Heated vest? Im in the market for one and based on recently warranty experience - I would like to continue to buy from BARE - ( currently own 2 wetsuits and 2 drysuits from Bare).

Im looking for another DPV to compliment my viper. I dont want to dig with the viper. Tusa or Apollo. Let me know if you have on you want to move. I almost ordered a brand new AV2 - but I cant let myself spend 2500 on a digging scooter.....

My revo has (2) Shearwaters. ( Petrel RMS controller and a Nerd monitor). I love both. I was recently looking at an innovation on another rebreather where the O2 and Dil SPGs were eliminated and the pressures were shown on the controller. This was not done with wireless or bluetooth but with a...

I just booked a group of 3 of us to head to Key Largo in January (18-23) for a chance to build up hours on our new Revo's. We are going to dive dry since that's what we do up here all the time. That being said, we are planning for undergarments and also trying to decide whether we should wear...

My light flooded a few weeks ago. I have been trying to get in touch with you for weeks. I opened a ticket on 6/15. Ive sent several emails over the last 8 days and tracked my online ticket and it appears no one from Hollis has even viewed the ticket. What can I do to get this light fixed? We...

I saw the thread on scuba or underwater movies and it got me thinking. We've all read about movies that they have talked about making, but never made. I would think the following are marketable and would make great dive/water based movies if done well. 1) Story of the S5. If you dont know...

Well after delaying for years and almost buting several used scooters - I placed the order for a new scooter last week. My useage is a little different than many on here. In NJ, a DPV is used to: 1) get down the granny and anchor line in a current 2) help make tying in and moving the shot...

We are in the early stages of considering a move to NC some time in the next 0-24 months. I am an avid NJ diver, with a very well rigged dive boat, that is actually considering the loss of my crew as part of my moving decision????? I know, I know - nuts. If my wife decides she wants to do...

I am very intrigued by the Thermalution Yellow grade. I have 75% convinced myself to order one. My question is about one of the better features - I like the fact that there is no external battery pack. Less wires, etc. That being said - is there any concern about lithium batteries INSIDE of the...

Anyone still diving a weezle? Seems like a lot of local divers in NJ still swear by them but the trend from reading forums over the last few years has been for people to move to more "heavily marketed" items. I asked a friend yesterday why he wears a weezle over some of the other options and he...

What is the latest on these? I know you need a ring system for them to work. Im mostly concerned with comfort. I cant stand Latex neck seals as I feel they are to tight for me to be comfortable. I like Neoprene, and stay generally dry but every once in a while, certain head movements cause a...

Im ordering the new DS this week. I absolutely love my XCD2 - but its time to move it to back-up duty especially since we are making more and more multi-day trips on the new boat and a drysuit problem could kill not 1 day of diving, but 2 or 3. Ive read some "professional" reviews on this...

Does anyone have experience with this suit yet? I am interested in hearing real life feedback as I may look to get one this winter.

Ill do some additional research tonight but the Mako 8.xCFM compressor that is installed in the new (to me) boat has been run with Anderol 555. Is this oil OK for continuous blending? Seems from a few quick searches on my phone that it should be ok. Im doing some maintenance this weekend...

We have been diving my 33' Bertram for a number of years. I also had a 33' HS CC for a few and dove it some. Both had their strengths and weaknesses. One was fast but uncomfortable - the other is comfortable and perfect for trolling - but not great for diving. After diving on a few friends boats...

How hard is it to convert a compressor to be water cooled for a bilge install?

Shearwater posted on facebook that they have something new coming out soon that instead of replacing the Petrel - will revolutionalize diving. Any ideas or rumors out there?

Im thinking about getting a SS scooter. The more I look into them, the more I like them. I am a little confused. It seems that most forums recommend that a scooter user " look at a more modern and reliable brushless moter" - BUT - the same people seem to love the SS scooters. It seems that only...
