I have a DSS stainless steel plate with harness and a 20lb DSS wing for sale. It actually belongs to a friend who asked me to sell it for him, it’s been used maybe 10 times total several years ago and stored well since. I honestly don’t know what it’s worth, I’ll start at $300 and see what the...

Anybody interested in trading a very good condition balanced/adjustable for one of my converted pilots? They are the best breathing 2nd stages I have ever used, but I'm diving 95% in caves and I've decided to use B/As (or 109s) in that setting pretty much all the time. I have three pilots; 2...

I have a friend with a DSS steel plate, LCD 20lb wing, standard harness that he would like to sell. It's only been used a few times several years ago and stored well. I really have no idea what it's worth. I don't have any pictures but I can probably get some. Any interest? PM me.

Hello, I'm in the market for a 5 mil suit for use in around 70F temps. I'm currently using an older 3 mil with a 3 mil hooded vest and marginally too cold for the dives I'm doing, Mexican caves. I would like to avoid going to a 7 mil suit if I can and a drysuit is out of the question for me at...

This light is almost new, with one week of diving last September. It puts out a solid 4700 lumens for 5 1/2 hours on the highest setting. The goodman handle is from my old HID and the battery has about 40-50 charge cycles on it. $1,000 shipped to U.S. address. It's this light: 10.310.920-10-20...

Is anyone else getting a 403 access forbidden message at cavediver.net? I wonder if they're having problems with the site.

Anyone have any experience with this light? I'm thinking of getting either this one or the TL3500 supreme. It might be time to ditch my canister light, which is a shame considering I just bought it. Going cordless is just too tempting.

I had an interesting experience last week in Mexico during a sidemount cave dive. One of my B/As started to inhale unevenly; there would be an initial sticking, then a rush of air, intermittently. Not every time, and it would frequently start well into the dive. In sidemount you're switching...

Howdy, Is anyone on this forum well versed in diagnosing HID light problems? I have a LM 21w that won't fire up initially after it's been sitting for several weeks. I have to flip the switch several times, eventually it does fire, then works fine for the remainder of a several day trip. Then I...

For sale is my Phoenix Royal Aquamaster, in close-to-perfect condition with rechromed cans, all new silicone hoses/mouthpiece. I restored this reg several years ago and have only used it once or twice. Original 2nd stage w/silicone diaphragm. I just put it on a tank and it breathes great. I...

Howdy, I have a light monkey HID that's out of warranty. Before I send it back to them, I want to try to figure it out myself. The problem is when it hasn't been used for a few months, it won't fire up the first time I turn it on. On this last trip, I charged it up, brought it to the dive, got...

I have a fairly new (5-6 years old) wetsuit that I love and fits me really well. One of the seams recently split open; the seams are not stitched, they're bonded and taped. It's about a 7-8 inch split. I am considering gluing the seam back together, stitching it up with dental floss, then gluing...

Hi, sorry for the self-plug here, but I just posted a for sale thread for three galvanized LP72s. For Sale - LP 72s (three) San Antonio or Austin One of these is a nice 'bump bottom' Kidde that doesn't use a boot. I haven't seen many of those around, but I think they used to be fairly popular.

Howdy, Two are PSTs, galvanized, hydro with plus rating through the end of this month. (May 19) I used these as doubles for several years. The other is a Walter Kidde 'bump bottom' tank that stands on it's own with no boot, hydro expired this past March. All three tanks were painted (over...

I'm selling 3 LP 72s, all galvanized, in hydro until May. 2 PSTs with plus rating, 1 Walter Kidde "bump bottom". That's a classy tank for the vintage crowd. $50 each, with modern yoke valves. I really like these tanks, I can't believe I'm selling them, but we're getting ready to move and my...

Howdy, I'm ditching the straps on my petrel and going bungee....anybody have photos, advice on bungee size, routing, etc? I was thinking of trying to cram 3/16 in the slots, I find it more comfy than the 1/8 stuff.

I normally would not do something like this, but German simply did not show up to a booked cave dive on Cozumel last week, despite multiple emails confirming the time/date. This is, unfortunately, the 2nd time he's blown me off for a guided trip. I have to recommend that divers avoid him for...

I wrote a short article several years ago for an online column hosted by my friend and cave instructor extraordinaire Natalie Gibb. I was looking through some old files this morning trying to figure out my MK5 DIN retainer conundrum when I found the article. So I thought some people on this...

Howdy, I'm interested in diving somewhere within reasonable distance of Havana, and certainly on the south coast, as the north probably has some extensive hurricane damage. Has anyone been to the area around Isla de la Juventud or ruta de los indios? I would welcome any advice or...

I posted my PRAM on the vintage equipment marketplace forum, in case anyone is interested: Phoenix Royal Aquamaster for sale I put a lot of time and money into this excellent regulator, I'm just not getting to use it since I am mostly cave diving these days. (Yes, I know Luis has a technical...
