    DUI rock boot sizing question

    So I ordered some size 10 dui rock boots (in Australia from USA, took a month to arrive!) and I went off my shoe size which is USA 9.5/UK 8.5.

    Possibility of upgrading LED torch?

    I have an Oceanic Arc 250 torch. It has a fantastic build quality and the switch is one of the best I've seen. But it's dim. So dull that it's not even worth using. I was wondering if anybody had some advice or could point me in the right direction on how I could upgrade it to be brighter.

    With the new Perdix AI doing this on the log automatically, will there be provisions introduced to allow owners of non AI Shearwater owners to manually insert their tank pressures to have the ability to log our air consumption?

    Servicing Poseidon in Melbourne, Australia

    Would anybody be able to point me in the direction of a Poseidon dealer and servicing department in my home town? I've not been able to find anything, and they're quite expensive to get done at my regular shop. A second question, would a Poseidon Cyklon 5000 first stage be suitable as a...

    I'm currently diving a twinset of 12.2l Fabers with a giant 55lb Hollis wing (got it cheap with the backplate) and I want to downsize. I'm just wondering if this HOG wing will be sufficient lift? I'll be diving with a trilaminate drysuit. Another question, as I'm pretty new to twinset, and...

    Twinset Manifold Making Sound

    Tanks were just recently hydro tested, and the manifold was checked over. So I had my twinset filled today as per usual. But when I got it home I could hear a creaking/croaking sort of sound coming from the centre of the manifold. Turning on the air, or closing the manifold doesn't take away...

    DIY Gear hangers/storage - any advice?

    So my gear is starting to add up now. I've got a 5/7mm wet suit, a 3mm shorty, a trilaminate drysuit and the accompanying undergarments. Atm, I've just got them hanging on whatever thicker coat hangers I had lying around (plastic or wood), but I don't feel like spending $30-50 AUD to buy the...
