    Is there a >3,000 psi compressed air piping system?

    Something like this but capable of running the pressure needed to fill scuba tanks? My club has a tank house with ~400 tanks. A system where the tanks could be filled on the storage racks would be ideal. I know one option would be just having a long hose, maybe on a retractable reel, with a...

    Will the Scubapro Twin Jet Max Spring Heel Straps work on Scubapro Seawing Nova fins?

    Title says it all but I'll say it again Will the SCUBAPRO Twin Jet Max Spring Heel Straps work on the Seawing Nova fins? I was told the posts are the same for both fins, but I want to make sure. I prefer removing my fins using the quick-release buckle vs bungee. If it's an option I'll swap out...

    Is it possible to convert Dive Rite XT1/XT2 to O2 clean?

    Maybe a stupid question but, is this possible? Do they sell a conversion kit for these or something? I've been using them for sidemount but I'm switching to SP regs for my bottom gas and would like to turn my Dive Rite regs into deco regs.

    Does anyone use a CBA on their scooter batteries?

    I have two Dive-Xtras P1 scooters. One was getting shorter run times than the other. I asked Dive-X and they recommended either sending the battery back to them to hook up to their analyzer or buying my own. Shipping Li-Ion batteries is a pain so I opted to get my own CBA. I don't know dick...

    A question of terminology regarding Nitrox

    Is Nitrox (EANx) a "mixed gas" if you are actually "blending" pure O2 into a compressor that produces 21%? Is Nitrox that's "made" using a membrane system considered a "mixed" gas? Or am I reading too much into semantics and the terminology on this is considered to be interchangeable? Is there...

    DEMA 2018 - Anyone dive the B-29 in Lake Mead while in LV?

    Seems like it would be a pretty cool dive. Is this a thing when they do DEMA in Vegas? Looks like only one dive operation does this? Tech Diving Limited I guess being the only game in town they have the luxury of setting the price... which looks to start at $450. :eek: Based on the price I'm...

    Suunto EON Core? Where did this come from?

    I hadn't seen any ads about Suunto EON Core until a few minutes ago. Interesting looking. I like this a lot better than then Steel in that they made it all screen and put the buttons on the side. I dive a Perdix and love it, but I can't help but like the display on the Suunto. The picture...

    Carbon pencils for slates

    Probably stupid to not want to spend $1.99 but would be willing to spend $26.99 for the "raw" materials, but... These carbon pencils sold by DGX... they look like they're woodless sketch pencils like these that have heat shrink tubing over them. Question is... which version of the ones on the...

    PADI Pro Site

    Is there a way to search a diver using their certification number instead of their first, middle, last names and DOB?

    Anyone have a Light & Motion Sola Dive 2500 S/F?

    Been wanting to pull the trigger one of these but I've read some reviews that sounds like the battery life has gone downhill with L&M's products. It seems like a pretty large amount of coin to drop on something that might not last at least a few years. The biggest appeal for me is the size...

    This isn't an Oxycheq, is it?

    I know the piece over the inflator hose says Oxycheq and the tag serial # starts with OX, but it doesn't have the embroidered Oxycheq on the sides and the side seams are nothing like the Oxycheq Mach V 18# wings I've seen. Is this just a really old one or did this guy just sew those pieces onto...

    Advanced Nitrox.... can this be done online like Nitrox

    Do you have to do "practical" exercise and dives to complete this course or can it be done online like PAD EANx?

    Why don't more companies make an 18# wing?

    I only know of Oxycheq and Apeks. They seem more than adequate for single-tank recreational diving. Am I missing something?

    Using a 2-way radio in the water?

    Has anyone ever used a 2-way radio on a dive to communicate with the boat once they surface? If so, can someone recommend a good waterproof radio & (hard or soft) case combo that are good to and beyond recreation depths? Any tips on how to use the radio when you've reached the surface in order...

    Question About Padi Tec Rec Instructor Cert

    Do you get certified as "all encompassing" Tec Rec instructor that can teach all of the Tec Rec courses? Or do you get the "rec" instructor cert and then get certified for each level of Tec Rec (e.g. certified for teach Tec 40, but not Tec 45 or 50)?

ERDI Underwater Explosive Recovery Specialist | SDI | TDI | ERDI Yes, I am an EOD school graduate, so I am qualified. I would still need to take Rescue Diver though. I'm...

    Logging a dive manually in Shearwater Desktop?

    Any way to do this? I hate having gap in my dive numbers when I don't have my computer with me and I don't like having to run multiple dive log apps. It would be awesome to (1) be able to manually log a dive into SWD and/or (2) being able to import DBs from other dive logs (e.g. Suunto DM5)

    Does anyone else have problems with Shearwater Desktop BT connection?

    I've had problems on and off since I got my Petrel downloading logs. I used the BT dongle and depending on the version of Shearwater Desktop (SWD) it would work no problem. Several times, when I install an SWD upgrade... it no longer syncs with my dive computer. I recently got a new laptop...
