    Pencil dilemma

    I use the wooden pencils that Ikea gives out for free. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IKEA_pencil I just shrink wrap the pencil (if not the pencil will spilt in half after some time), and attach it to the bungee in my wetnotes. Works okay thus far (apart from one time where the pencil floated...

    Feedback on Trim/Buoyancy? (In Preparation of TDI Decompression Procedures Course)

    @VikingDives thanks for the comments, appreciate it! yeah, agree that I need to build up this habit, I guess in a pool I can get away with looking down and using the pool floor as a visual reference, but like @crofrog mentioned, that would not work out too well in mid water situations. yeah...

    Tech/ doubles reg set

    I was in the same situation as you, having started out with Scubapros (MK17s and MK25s with G260s), and faced the same conundrum when I had to purchase more regs for technical dives. I've considered almost every reg under the sun (mainstream ones such as SP, Apeks, Poseidon, Halcyon, XDeep...

    Orcatorch Issues

    Yeah, orcatorch has DM'ed me, waiting for the person in charge of my case to email me, and I'll forward all the information to them. Will keep you guys updated on how it goes. Same here, I own a few orcatorch lights too, and are quite happy with them until this "issue". But hopefully this is...

    Orcatorch Issues

    yeah, that was my initial reaction as well, but sadly there is currently only one orcatorch dealer in the whole of my country (Malaysia). As such, any more purchases of Orcatorch products would likely result in me having to cross paths with said dealer again. Yeah, guess I will drop them an...

    Orcatorch Issues

    Hi all, I' recently bought an Orcatorch D520 as a backup light. Immediate on my next dive trip (2 days after purchase) I'm having issues with it where, intermittently, the torch (roughly 1 out of 15 times) either doesn't turn on or flickers when it turns on. Most of the times where I managed...

    Xtar D26 1600S

    Hi, just wanna ask if anyone has the videos or photos showing the performance of this light? Been hoping for that since I am looking for a cordless light with a tight spot, and this D26 1600s seems to be the perfect candidate. Any help here would be much appreciated!

    Primary light recommendations....

    Perhaps the OrcaTorch D630? I'm looking at it myself, and perhaps you would find it meets your requirements too. Sorry, didn't see the cordless requirement, just disregard this :wink:

    Shearwater Language Change

    Hi all, wanna ask about language change on the petrel 1. Is the change just a simple setting in the menu, or does it necessitate a firmware update or something like that? Context is a petrel 1 in Chinese, want to change to English. Thanks a lot!

    Advice getting BP+W and long hose+necklace config off in the water

    Had issues with that skill when I first transitioned to BP/W back then. After some experimenting, found the way that worked best for me was to 1. Clip off light, take off necklace and longhose 2. Release belt buckle 3. Flip rig over head, and take off (found it easier this way, instruments on...

    First got to know him through ScubaBoard as northernone, always had something productive to contribute to the discussion at hand, calm, mature and full of insights. About a year later, on another SCUBA facebook group, got to chat with him personally, and he agreed to get the paperwork for my...
