    Trip in August where not much current

    We are planning a trip (probably 3-4 weeks long) in Asia in August. Hubbie has had leg issues so would like to avoid kicking against the current. Would love recommendation on any destination with not much current. We are into muck diving so may check out Lembeh but anywhere else?

    Garmin Descent T1 - leaking air / losing connection

    Hi all, My husband's T1 is leaking air and (I'm not sure if it's related) not connecting very well with the dive computer. I seem to remember someone saying that the o-ring should be removed (the one visible below) if the transmitter is connected to an extension hose for seal. The o-ring...
