    Best sized canister for PLB?

    Excellent suggestion. One thing I am seeing about Light Monkey vs Custom Divers that I like is that Light Monkey has multiple diameters and lengths available. I like the idea of being able to stash a few other items into a 3x10 canister for emergencies. Now that said, anyone know if LM has any...

    How to clean White RK3s!?

    I've used Black Magic Bleche White on mine. With a bit of brushing it works well on grime and general whitening though not so well with rust. A little clr brushed onto a rust spot eliminates those.

    Question CAI vs HRG

    Yes the LOB departs from Hurghada. ATM all things not in Poland are very much in flux and not fixed. The post LOB "tourist activities" will certainly include Cairo and Luxor. This has very suddenly gone from my spending the bulk of July in Poland non-diving to visiting some family and then...

    Question CAI vs HRG

    I am in the process of trying to put together a trip to Egypt. Circumstances dictate this trip be in July. I am currently looking at a LOB for myself and my son departing from Hurghada. My non-diving wife will join us after we return to port. The plan is to spend a few days after the LOB to do...

    GoPro 10 Leak

    I would question what batteries he was using. I've got a 5 and a 7 that will do this when using third party batteries. Never had a problem when using gopro batteries.

    OMS Tesseract 60 vs Apeks WTX D60R

    LMAO .... Fedex must be monitoring this board. They read that I ordered a new wing and seem to have magically found the lost Apeks 39min after I posted that I had bought a new one.

    OMS Tesseract 60 vs Apeks WTX D60R

    Thanks for the input. Absent any serious quality issues I ordered the OMS and will see how it goes. I would have preferred the Apeks but at a little over $400 difference it is too much to justify. I had a lead on a preowned but unused Apeks on here but Fedex screwed that up. :(

    OMS Tesseract 60 vs Apeks WTX D60R

    There's the rub I can get the OMS wing with the retraction bands for 300 vs 750 for the Apeks. Pray tell, what do find annoying about the inflator location?

    OMS Tesseract 60 vs Apeks WTX D60R

    Without getting into the debate please accept that I am in need of dual bladder wing. I prefer the hose arrangement of the OMS and Apeks varieties of these and am not aware of any other wings that offer same face hoses. The wings seem very comparable to each other though the Apeks is...

    Salty Endeavors

    The Occidental ... Overall I liked it but there are some caveats. 1. The staff could not have been more friendly. 2. The staff at the Royal level check in desk while friendly were inept. There is not another way to say it. 3. The food is not their strong area. You can certainly find decent food...

    Salty Endeavors

    My family just got back from our first trip to Cozumel where my son and I were able to spend 6 days and 15 dips under the water diving with Salty Endeavors. Let me state up front that I went into this trip completely green concerning Cozumel and was at the mercy of DMs and boat skippers. I can...

    Cenote Question

    My family and I are going to Cozumel for 8 days in July. My son and I will be diving. My wife does not / will not dive. This will be our first trip to Mexico. Most of time will be spent on Coz but, I would like to take a day and dive a cenote. What would be ideal would be to find one that could...

    Servicing your own regulators

    This thread is great and certainly pushing me in a direction I was already leaning. My biggest concern isn't so much the tools but rather the parts. Aside from Ebay getting parts seems to a be somewhat of a crap shoot especially so for say ... Apeks. Even more so now with Buddha having placed...

    Contacts vs Prescription lens?

    Here's the thing with prescription masks and high correction. Please note everything I am saying applies to being farsighted/hyperopia at >+6.5. Maybe this is another area where nearsighted folks get an advantage over us hyperotics. At scuba mask size the lenses are THICK. If someone will make...

    For Sale Apeks TX100 doubles regs

    Do the first stages have the 1/2" low pressure ports? I understand that some of the later versions of the TX100 did away with them.
