I have been playing with making some videos on my cave dives over the past two weeks and these two linked below seem pretty cool to me. They are definitely amateurish but I think some of you might like them.
I have a Fourth Element Arctic top XL that I don't use for sale. I wore it probably 5 times. I paid $190.00 for it and will accept $120.00 for it. I will ship to CONUS for free. Outside CONUS you pay shipping.
I have a real old GoPro camera (Hero 3) that I sometimes use in the caves. I am not looking to win a Pulitzer but want to be able to shoot videos of cave students installing jumps, running reels, frog-kicking etc. I currently use the camera out in open water and it works well for what I want to...
I have extended my Windstream internet coverage up to another building about 50 yards away.
We used this hardware configured as a wireless bridge which is a Ubiquiti Nano Station LOCOM5.
To get internet/WiFi into that remote building I put a Wireless Range Extender in there, hard-wired to the...
I have two grey Air Integrated transmitters on my SM rig. Occasionally they clash.
Anyone have a Yellow one they would trade for one my grey ones?
Mine are not SWIFT versions.
On February 25 through March 4, 2024 I am running a PADI/DSAT Tec 40 and Tec 45 instructor training course (ITC). This can include the trimix ratings for those levels for qualified candidates. This ITC will be following the new/revised program released by PADI at DEMA in November 2023...
I'm thinking of going the Starlink route here in North Central Florida. I have one friend in the panhandle near Marianna who uses it & loves it.
I need to have internet on two properties about 50 yards apart and I guess this is possible if burying some Cat 6 cable.
Right now we pay...

I have two grey transmitters on my SM rig. When I got these transmitters a couple of years ago they were sold out of the yellow ones so I had to settle for two grey ones and was aware of the possible RF clashes with two like kind transmitters.
Yesterday the displays on the handset were...

I did a series of dives Nov 25-28, 2023 - two dives per day using my Perdix AI. When I downloaded these to my iPhone / Shearwater app the dives on Nov 25 do not appear anywhere.
Has anyone else had this issue?
The backup computer is a Petrel 1 and the dives from Nov 25 show up on there.
Has anyone setup cruise control on a Blacktip?
There is a YouTube video showing how to do it -- has anyone tried it?
Setting Up Cruise Control on a Blacktip
I am attempting to change some of the settings on the Blacktip DPV. The VESC tool will not connect to the DPV.
The proper cable is being used. Apparently my laptop is not recognizing the DPV and I am not sure what to do next...??
Serial # begins with 002 - Firmware is George 0.4
Any help...
I have a friend who has been pitched to buy a Blacktip DPV. He will use it mainly in the ocean scootering around the Vandenburg since he lives in Key West. He will also want to use it it some cave diving at Ginnie, Little River.
Opinions/Information on this DPV for these applications will be...
On occasion I teach a CM Optima course here in cave country and along with anything you teach, you learn stuff while teaching and you re-learn stuff you already knew but was maybe on a back burner.
This past week I taught two guys a Choptima class. I had previously taught them OC trimix at...
