I have DS4s, DSTs and FSRs that I have used for my backcountry doubles regs at various points. I like the routing of the FSR (with 5th port) the most, with the extra angle all the LP hoses come off at the perfect angle. I also service my own regs, and the replaceable knife edge on the FSR is a...

I've had this happen on my Apeks regs, but only when the DIN threads are getting particularly crusty. I've taken to giving the handwheels an ultrasonic bath every 6 months/50 dives, at the same time I check all the hoses for tightness, confirm cracking pressure etc. Also encourages me to replace...

FS: $1k USD + shipping Selling my sadly underutilized underwater camera setup. Includes: - Olympus E-PL10 camera - Backscatter AOI housing with vacuum system - Ultralight tray with two ball arms - Backscatter Mini Flash with snoot - Misc spare arms and clamps - Spare batteries for camera and...

I don't really know...I guess because it's very small, very fast movements compared to the full flutter?

My instructor described it to me as trying to shake water off your toes, and that works well for me. I think most of the power comes from moving your legs at the knees (hips stay locked), and your ankles stay reasonably loose, letting the fin tips move. It's definitely a weird motion though - it...

I second this opinion - service kits are easy to get (from Europe), and with a little bit of work you can even easily buy all the o-rings you need from an industrial o-ring supplier, and only need to source seats/diaphragms.

I wear mine running all the time, and I have truly tiny wrists (I wear XS gloves). It's a lot lighter than you'd expect, thanks to the titanium.

If you’ll ship to Canada, I would take it off you hands

No, this is all really interesting stuff! I’m well aware of the existing foam options - my desire to print stuff is because I want to make more complex shapes than just a tube, and 3D printing is a lot easier than the subtractive processes. I’m very curious about that PLA Gloop - I might look...

Paging @rsingler for the ‘Manufacturer o-ring replacement guide’ gore

A few idle thoughts, based on my complete layperson's understanding of the scientific literature on DCS: - Working at depth: There is a fairly well-proven link between elevated heart rate/respiration at depth and incidence of DCS. I believe that the mechanism is increased circulation causing a...

I believe it's a type of E/O connector, which is seemingly the scuba industry standard for a waterproof, pressure-proof, wet-mateable connector. I have very similar-looking connectors on my VentureHeat vest, but I haven't had a lot of luck sourcing an identical replacement connector. If you're...

You’re going to want a wifi access point (not range extender!) connected to the Nanostation on the far side. Configuring it to work with the existing Windstream router is going to be the slightly hard part, but definitely doable. I like Ubiquiti equipment, so I’d put something like the U-6...

Interesting context on this topic (T1 in CCR) from InDepth today:

Adding Average Depth (available in Gauge mode) to literally any field in Single or Multi-gas mode is what I’d love. At the moment, you have to pick between diving in computer mode, or being able to access Average Depth for ratio deco on-the-fly.

Question as a current Mk2i owner - are there any changes to the user-programmable dive fields in single gas/multi-gas dive mode? One of my only complaints about the Mk2i is that you can't add some fields (average depth!) to the customizable screens.

Are there any better pictures of the attachment point on the back of the light? I'd like to try attaching one to a hard Goodman handle...it could make for an incredibly compact backup primary light/travel primary light, if it could be rigged up with a hard Goodman handle.

Thread on it is here - I’m still not 100% happy with the design, so I haven’t got around to putting it on Thingiverse, but I’ll share the Fusion360 files if anyone wants.

For backup lights, mechanical rotary switch. For primary (non-video) lights, a locking push button switch works well. Your non-locking switch - even with the software lockout - accidentally turned on so many times that I had to design a guard for it.

I have a few (I think 4 total?) yoke kit take-offs from Apeks regulators that I've converted to DIN. All used to some extent, but generally still in excellent condition. If anyone could use them, I'll let them go for cost of shipping from Canada (likely somewhere around $20-30 to the US?) + a...
