I am planning a trip soon and want to get ahead of all the possibly set backs. I have a blacktip travel in which I use the dewalt 20v 9ah flex max battery (dcb609) I have seen some people mention travel documents and specs for the batteries. Is there anyone on here that may be able to point me...

hello guys and gals., new black tip travel owner here. actually just new to the dpv in all. the dealer who i bought it through is doing a dive with me in the next week to teach me how to properly use it. other than that im open to advice on using it, accessories, and what not. like where can i...

What’s the best way to store my Teric for an extended none use time. I am going away and will not be around to the my computer on charge ever few days before the battery completely dies. Now I’ve never let the battery completely die and leaving it on the charger isn’t much of and option because...

i recent started diving the backplate and wing setup, 5 dives in. i am noticting corrosion/oxidation forming throughout the plate, especially around the screw holes and edges. when you rub your fingers on the edge its definitely rough. i disassemble the setup after every dive, except removed...

just out of curiosity how long does the ai transmitter battery normal last. as of my last dive a few days ago my battery is fine. i have a shearwater teric with the grey transmitter which has no led battery indictor. i assume when the battery is low it will notify me on the teric? ive had it...

is it okay to submerged in fresh water post dive any first stage with the acd feature. i have been told yes and no from different associates at the same dive shop. ive had it for a year now and dove it about 50 times and submerge it in fresh water after every dive. nut i just want to know...

shearwater teric user i was recently on a dive in which after the dive my dive buddy and i were comparing our dive data and i noticed that my SAC rate information is not available. first time i noticed this and i then went back to one of the first dives i did on this computer and a year ago. it...

setting up my new apeks back plate and wing, got everything fitted and now time to attach the backplate, wing and STA together. i have to use the upper holes on the wing so the wing sits a bit lower. but as im bolting everything together im noticing that the sta sits really tight at the top...

So guys and gal I am jumping into the world of backplate and wings. I already know what brand and general setup I’m going to buy, but I’m getting conflicting advice from fellow diver and dive shops on what bladder capacity to go with. It’s between a 30 or 40 pound lift capacity. Some info about...

So i have a GoPro 8 and also a 9, Ive always bought the official GoPro protective housing for them due to trust issues :facepalm:. But in the past year I’ve broken 3 GoPro cases at the mounting points. My assumption is because of how much i have to tighten the screw so the GoPro in the case...

I know flying after diving is a big no no. But when people think of flying they think of a commercial jetliner that goes up to 32,000 ft and higher. I am a small private airplane mechanic like the little cessnas and pipers. Today I had to refuse to go Bahamas to change a part on one of the...

So yesterday while diving the Lady Luck off of Hillsboro Fl, I got to the depth of 112ft. A good portion of my dives in the past few months have been at depths of 100 to 120ft (about 20 dives) But yesterday somewhere around 110ft I literally felt like I was having an out of body experience and...

I’ve been doing a lot of deep dives in the past few months and I always start my accent at 1000 psi like you should and in turn I exit the water with around 600 to 700 psi. I’m looking into pony tank options. Ones with the all in one reg, second screwed right into the first stage that’s hand...

So I’m ready to enter the world of DPV’s mainly to avoid the swim out and in during shore dives. I really don’t want to spend a few thousand on one. I know of two fellow divers who use this particular scooter. Looked it up on YouTube found a few reviews but nothing on actual use. The divers i...

So guys and gals I’ve been looking for a pair of xcel anti 0.3mm gloves for a couple of weeks now. I don’t know if they are just out of stock due to the holiday Season or discontinued. I live in south Florida so the waters are generally warm year round so I really don’t need thicker gloves 99%...

Hello fellow divers, I am looking into to getting a suptig 84 led dive light mainly for my go pro. But also would use it as a dive light for night dives so that way I can hold the go pro and light in one hand. I had the smaller model of the suptig but the mount got loose mid dive and fell off...

So holiday season is upon us and all the sales are coming about. Before i pull the trigger and swipe my trusty credit card for a new camera i want to see what you guys and gals think about and experiences on the Nikon Z mirrorless line up. I used to own a Nikon d7100 that i had setup for...

Let’s see some of y’all go pro rigs. I have a super basic setup with stuff I got off Amazon for pretty cheap. Please excuse the flowers in my bed sheets

Curious to know if anyone has had an issue with the go pro protective/ dive housing. My local dive shop told me that it wouldn’t hold up pass about 80ft even though go pro claims it can go to 190 ish feet. Can anyone clarify this for me. Not sure if the dive shop is just trying to sell me a...

I recently bought the leg3end elite setup, upgraded from my 13 year old titan lx setup. As y’all know they don’t come with spare Octo. I have a air source on my bcd so I don’t need an Octo at the moment but as my diving progresses I am upgrading all my gear, so now I’m going with a apeks...
