    Eon Core Error code d1c00600

    I had another incident with the "System Failure" error on my replaced Eon Core. This time I was on a live aboard in Komodo. The boat guys insisted in charging everything using the AC outlets in the camera room, and not the outlets in the cabins. For convenience I charged the Eon in the cabin...

Contacted them on 29/08, got a reply with shipping instructions the very next day, and the confirmation that it was going to be handled within warranty. Shipped on 30/08, by PostNL, insured. This stage was...

    Perdix AI: Powerful, Simple….. Reliable ? (apologies, a rant)

    Yesterday we wrote to the UK service center, Narked@90. Today we already had the response, with the return form to fill and the confirmation that it will be handled under warranty ! We only need to pay for outgoing shipping. Let's see what the turnaround time is, but frankly we are hardly in a...

    Perdix AI: Powerful, Simple….. Reliable ? (apologies, a rant)

    OK, apologies beforehand for the rant. But allow me tell you a story. First diving day on the first of two weeks cruise in the Red Sea. My wife has a Perdix Ai that she bought in 2019, but effectively, has been used during four live aboard cruises, some 6 weeks in total. For the first dive...

    Backup computer for when your main fails while in diving trip ?

    Hello, My wife and I dive recreationally, lately we do mostly LOB. Her main computer is a Perdix, and she gave me a Perdix 2 for Christmas. We are currently on a LOB in the Red Sea, and my wife's Perdix died on the very first dive. One of the push buttons failed, fell off and the computer...

    Need advice for a LOB week in the Red Sea this year.

    Hello there, This year we were planning to go to Bonaire in August, but the situation with the SCTLD made us rethink the strategy and opt for the Red Sea for this time. This is going to be our third time diving in the Red Sea: We did the North reefs and wrecks plus BDE with the Emperor Elite...

    I'm selling my Suunto EON Core with the matching Tank POD. Computer has around 120 dives logged, bought it 2018. It is in excellent condition as it has been very well cared for.

    Olympus TG6 - Ikelite housing - strobe trigger

    For quite some time I had issues triggering the strobe with the PT-058 and the M52 Air lens flash adaptor, using an official Olympus fibre optics cable. I see the Ikelite strobe ports rely on a mirror, just like the flash adaptor that comes with the Air lens. In my case it was all down to...

    TG-6 with wide angle lens

    I have taken macro shots with the M52 Air lens on. But now I'm using the WA lens and for macro I simply take it off. Just get a 52mm lens holder and attach it somewhere to your setup. This past holiday in Komodo I've switched from wide to macro regularly, it is not so complicated. The TG-5...

    Dive knives when out with a DM

    My wife and myself have a small, flat Titanium knife/line-cutter attached to the belt of our BCDs. It's completely inconspicuous. She's an old-school diver (before BCDs) and she would not feel safe without carrying a cutting tool of some kind on any dive. I'm a modern-day diver, but learned a...

    TG-5 and dual UFL-3 strobes question.

    Hello guys. My current setup for my TG-5 is one UFL-3 strobe and one 3000lm SeaLife video light on SeaLife tray and arms. I am so far using the strobe in RC mode with moderately successful results. I have bought a wide angle dome port and I'm upgrading to a proper articulated arms/tray system...

    Olympus TG-5/PT-058/UFL-3 strange firing issues.

    It's been a while, but for the sake of closure in case anyonewith a similar issue finds this thread in the future. I would like to report that with the Sea&Sea optical cable everything works perfectly, even with the blind diffuser/mirror arrangement. The S&S cable has the widest optical...

    Hello. I just updated mine to V3.0 a couple week ago. After reading your post above I checked the charge and, FWIW, mine still goes to 19Hs when fully charged.

    Olympus TG-5/PT-058/UFL-3 strange firing issues.

    Thanks for the input. I see your point. I will look into it but the wide angle lens restricts the space there a lot. I am more convinced now that the problem is more in the optical path and possible attenuations/losses than the lack of the diffuser. The cable I'm using is the Olympus one. I...

    Hello from Holland.

    There seems to be some local diving in some lakes and the North Sea, but I'm not attracted to cold waters at all.... More than 5mil wetsuit is not really my thing... Yes, we all hope we're finally getting out of this mess. The vaccines really seem to be working, so the light at the end of the...
