    Port Douglas "Non-Beginner" diving?

    Hi all, I had searched around on this topic prior to coming to Australia, but didn't find an answer to this question. I went out today on Posideon from Port Douglas, and the diving was fine, though I was a little disappointed that they seem to treat all the divers as Beginners. Are there any...

    Near perfect waterproof bag for binder style divelog

    I have a binder style dive log book, and I've always wanted a well fitting waterproof bag for it. I've used Ziploc bags for many years, but they tend to be overly large, and not that durable. Yesterday I stumbled onto Coghlan's Waterproof Pouch, #8417 (10 1/2" by 13 1/2") at the local...

    10W LED light with Delrin canister

    Last year I built a Delrin canister LED light for myself, using an SSC P7 LED, and a Taskled HipCC driver. The canister and light head were both made from Delrin, using an inner aluminum head sink to hold the LED, reflector and driver. This first design left the switch boot totally exposed...

    Having trouble uploading photos

    Hi all, I'm pretty new to uploading & posting photos on Scubaboard, but everything was working for me two days ago. Today, if I try to post a photo, it looks like it uploads, but then I get "This category doesn't include any images". If I try to create a new album (which had worked OK), I...

    Cornelius Keg Pressure Pot

    Kegconnection.com has a pretty good price on a Cornelius keg, dual regulator and 5 lb CO2 bottle for $144, including shipping. I ordered this, plus an extra set of o-rings. It took a full week to get the package, but it was well worth the wait. The opening is 3 3/4" by 3.1". The dual...

    Scubapro Mk20 Seat Retainer

    Hi all, I need a Scubapro MK20 seat retainer, either the old style (part# 10.700.102) or the MK25 seat retainer kit (part# 41.300.020). I'd also like to get a G250 diaphragm. If you can help, please send me a PM. Thanks, -Todd.

    18/2 Carol cord + Argo gland = PITA?!?

    Hi all, I'm running into a roadblock on my canister dive light that I didn't anticipate. Trying to get the cord through the Argo gland is becoming a monumental challenge. I purchased both the cord & gland from the same DIY supplier (Oxycheq, I think), so these should play well together, and...

    Need a new source for Scubapro parts

    Hi all, I have three sets of Scubapro MK20 /G250s regulators, and have been doing my own servicing for about three years. I used to have a source for Scubapro parts in a different state, but the dive shop has moved onto to carrying a different line. The one LDS in the area doesn't let...

    Jotron AQ4 Strobe

    I've carried a Princeton Tec Aquastrobe for several years, but with one AA battery, the thing has always felt like a toy. I finally purchased a Jotron AQ4 strobe this week. This strobe is powered by 1 C battery, and is significantly brighter than the Aquastrobe. The size is about that of an...

    DSS now caries a bungie mount for the DiveRite Duo/TUSA IQ-700!

    I was looking around TheDecoStop the other day, and found a thread advertising the new DSS bungee mount for the DiveRite Duo/TUSA IQ-700/Cressi Archemidies/Apeks Quantum. Since this has been about my only complaint with my Duo, I immediately ordered one for myself, and one for my buddy. They...

    Digital picture frame recommendations?

    Hi all, I searched around, but couldn't find any threads on this topic. I'm looking to buy a digital picture frame for my wife for Christmas. After having read several of the reviews on Amazon.com, it looks like most models have some warts, typically in the software...either downloading and...

    Anyone interested in diving Monterey on Friday Sept. 21st?

    Hi all, For the past 4-5 years, I've come out to Gilroy to visit my wife's family, and generally spend several days diving in Monterey. I'm heading out tomorrow for a week and a half visit to Gilroy. I have the opportunity to dive on Friday Sept. 21st, and was wondering if anyone was...

    Blue Hole August 3,4

    Jon (NMDive01) and I hit Blue Hole on August 3,4. It was the first time in 10 months I'd been diving [I have a 5 month old & 2 year old]. We ended up taking 10 tanks since Stella was on vacation that weekend, and we couldn't get airfills. I was definitely out of practice for the first two...

    Scubapro G-250 Schematics?

    Hi all, I have the 12 page G250 Repair Guide, but it doesn't come with a schematic. I haven't seen any schematics online for the original G250 (not the G250HP!). Does anyone have a copy they could send me? In particular, I'm looking for the part numbers for the spring that goes with the...

    Scubapro G-250 stop clip

    Hi all, I have Harlow's and Wolfinger's books, as well as the Scubapro G250 service manual, but I have a question. Reinstalling the stop clip (prevents the adjuster knob from being fully unscrewed) was harder than I expected, so I thought I'd ask if I was missing a trick or a tool? All the...

    Multiple window mask for increased field of view

    Hey all, I'm currently fairly happy with a simple, low volume, two lens mask from IST. My only complaint is that I don't have a large amount of peripheral vision, which makes keeping track of the dive buddy something of a challenge in the some times murky waters of Monterey. I'm...

    Diving in New Mexico's lakes?

    Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has experience in diving in the lakes of New Mexico, besides the Blue Hole? Has anyone dove Navajo lake? I normally dive in Monterey on business trips, but am trying to find something closer to home (Albuquerque)... Any information would be...

    Diving New Mexico's lakes

    Hi all, I live in Albuquerque, but do most of my diving either in Monterey or the Caribbean. I'm currently looking for something closer to home. I was wondering if anyone out there has experience in diving in New Mexico, excluding the Blue Hole? Specifically, has anyone dove Navajo...
