:) Using the Pinnacle Temerate undergarment. 500g/m2 I wish! No, back home in Perth now. I bought it because I am now taking my diving in a much more tech direction. Doing deco procedures and then entry trimix this summer. I also manifolded my steels and forked out for a transpac and all...

Hi All, I just went out for my first drysuit dive this weekend using my new Pinnacle Evo 2. Must admit I have mixed feelings about it at this point as I really didn't enjoy the dive all that much. Yes, coming back up dry was very nice, but the following much less enjoyable things make me...

Hi All, I am a fairly experienced diver looking to start down the tech diving path this year. I currently dive a Seaquest Black Diamond but intend to get myself a much more tech oriented BCD for my new adventures. For background, I am an instructor and the Black Diamond is great for teaching...

I use an Aladin Z o2 wireless computer that retails for just about the same price as the datamask. I do not carry a separate SPG or tables for that matter since in the field of recreational diving, if my computer stops working, I can simply make a safe ascent and get back on the boat. I have...

<ashamed>Damn... that was it. Thanks guys.</ashamed>

OK, making progress. Thanks. My original guess was that the knob on top of the filter is what I was looking for. Now... when I turn that knob, it seems to have no effect. Whatever is releasing the pressure, just keeps on hissing and the the tank pressure stays at 100 bar even if I turn the knob...

Thanks, sorry for the lack of info, I only just took possession of this compressor and don't know much about it (or compressors in general). I believe the filter is a P21 super triplex. It has the screw on top with vent and fill written on it. During filling, once the final pressure...

Hi All, Can someone here give tell me what the procedure is to adjust the final pressure on a mariner? Or maybe point me to somewhere I can find information about it. I just found out my compressor guy is on holidays for 2 weeks and I don't want to wait that long. However, I am not a...

Which electronics does the unit have?

Hi all, I'm trying to make up a list of all medical sodalimes that have been successfully used for diving. So far, the only one I have found where the diver has been using it for a while and has had no issues is Spherasorb. Does anyone else out there regularily use medical sorb? Cheers,

Strange, site seems to be up. Anywho, I attached the doc in question.

Which manual are you after? Ray and Dolphin manuals are online on my site. http://sharkguy.dyndns.org in the resources section.

Yeah, it's called a Sonic Seeker and is distributed by Land & Sea Sports here is Australia. I won't tell you what I think of it yet, as we only just bought it and have only had one try so far. By what I have heard, it is supposed to be a good piece of equipment. I'll post more in the...

Hi all, I have just been reading the doc from Dräger discussing the scrubber time increase from 70 mins to 110 mins of the Ray scrubber. I have put it in the resources section of my site for reference. Now this shows that under normal levels of exertion a recreational diver would have to...

Cheers mate, just what I was after. I banged it in the resources section of my site just in case anyone is interested. It is an interesting document but has now got me thinking how water temperature will affect scrubber performance as the dräger tests were run in water at -2° C ... hmmm... I...

Does anyone have a link or something to a document confirming the 110min duration? I've heard it in a few places, but just can't seem to find anything "official". Cheers.

Hi all, I am seriously considering purchasing a Dräger Ray to get my foot into the rebreather community and through all the reading and research I have done, have figured out a lot of the questions I had about rebreather diving. One question that remains unanswered though is the use of...

I'm trying to get a bang stick for protection and have been down to the local police station where they said they will license it for me if I can find one. They said that here in Western Australia they will only license them if they have a pressure system making them only work under water. I've...

*shiver* I was diving on Burns Rocks just a mile south of there on that same day with a cute little western australian fur seal following me around for part of the dive....

100cuft steels. 2 of them.
