Can't really comment on your set ups, but when I owned APEKS gear (Central Florida), it was hard to get reliable service on the requlators

Buy what you have reached a comfort level with. I started out buying very early in my career and over the years I have bought and sold a lot of gear. So far, I'm only a few thousand in the hole.

I travel everywhere with stainless steel plate and HOG regs (comparatively heavy) and I don't have any problems with weight requirements. However, I don't travel with photography gear

does this include the transmitter?

I always have a DMSB but only deploy it if someone with me does not deploy.

I have the Zeagle pockets attached to my plate, but I use them to hold my safety equipment. I keep a 4 lb. weight on a rubber belt. If I dive a 7mm suit I add another 4 lbs. in some form of permanent attachment. I still drop the belt in an emergency (never had to yet). I firmly believe the...

I know this is a dated post, but did you ever get an answer about the discrepancy between Shadow Divers and Last Dive?

If you look around on this site, you can find a DIY rack that will have a similar footprint to your bin. You are much better off if you can hang things.

Most of the shops that I use call for you to fill out a log book. No big deal. If I am diving the same day I pick up the tank and it does not leave my control I would not worry about retesting. However, if you don't test at the shop or wherever you pick up your tank and you wait until you get...

What are the conditions or circumstances that would cause you to tumble an aluminum tank? I'm asking because I only own steel tanks and don't really know much about aluminum

Any word on when the product line will be rolling out? Curious, excited, anxious, etc.

I have had a Suunto hoseless AI computer for approximately 15 years. In all that time I have had 2 incidents where it didn't sync. This wasn't a problem, because I had a 2nd matching computer (bought because I was doing a liveaboard in Galapagos) and always had a back up. For the last 2...

you can have too much of a good thing. A person with one watch always knows the time, a person with two watches is never sure.

Last year someone posted on here in favor of dry tumbling. There was a general outpouring of "no way" "this is crazy" etc. After thinking about for several months, I have to ask: Why not? Does anyone have any real experience with it?

$675.00 includes shipping CONUS. Has approximately 20 dives. Good computer, just can't give up my AI.

Pretty much agree with all of this

What serviced would you do other than changing a battery? This is not meant to be snarky or to slam Suunto, genuinely curious

When I was a new diver on a boat in the Keys, I noticed another diver struggling to figure out how to assemble his gear. He put his regulator on the tank before attaching his BC. After a while, someone told him the BC went first. Then he attached the BC upside down. I mentioned this to the...
