    A few ideas on how to improve OW training

    :rofl3: ummm, if I have over 6 feet of visibility it is a good day of training, if we find 20 feet we might never leave.

    Difference between Aqualung Legend LUX Supreme & Aqualung Legend LX Supreme

    OK, I'll chime in here. The Difference between the two is the LUX has the pink gold. "if you want the same high performance features and ease of breathing as the Legend LUX but without the pink gold finish, you will find it with the Legend LX. Like the Legend LUX, the Legend LX features the...

    Air Fill Protocol

    That is what happens when Fill stations have no understanding of gas laws or DOT stampings. A little training goes a long way in customer service and client retention.

    Tell Dive Store Owners How You Feel

    Would love to discuss this with you but don't want to divert the thread. I feel a scuba center has a very strong reason to insure students get the best instruction available, but believe most stores don't handle it correctly.

    Need a compass for an older Aqualung Pivot 2 with Suunto gauges

    The Pivot II was only sold for a short time, it requires an adapter to mount the compass. It was basically a rubber boot with 4 legs that locked into the console with a quarter turn. A standard 2" side reading compass would then mount inside the boot. Trident D624 fit well. Finding the adapter...

    Seaquest Passport BCD, lost weight pack twice. Fix available? where to get new packs?

    The velcro weight pockets are still available from Aqualung dealers. While the pockets will hold ten pounds in each after a bit that is too much for the velcro and it pulls away. Keeping the velcro clean and free of sand, threads, and debris will help, trimming the long threads of the loop...

    Anybody made a lens caddy/holder or lens attachment for m67 lens

    I don't have a picture available of lens caddies I have made, but here is something else that may give you a visual to drawl from. Instead of the wide opening, you will want one that is almost the same diameter of your lens, it will not be as flat as this one is, and the part that is bolted...

    Anybody made a lens caddy/holder or lens attachment for m67 lens

    If you want, try using PVC. Cut it an inch wider than the base of your lens. Heat a bowl of water to boiling temp and drop the PVC in, give a few minutes to soften, remove it, smash it flat. using a dremel or rotozip cut a semi circle out of top edge. Reheat the water, this time only...

    Titan hose

    Because the stock holders are not making enough money! Duh. :D The Scuba Industry has long mirrored the automotive industry, it is just 20 years behind. As the economy collapsed each manufacture began looking for ways to capture and retain the lions share. Unfortunately, the things that made...

    Shop Owners/Staff - do you fill 6351 alloy?

    Well I guess that says about all there is to say regarding the science and function of electronic void detection. We fill them, live well, stay fit, die anyway, I say.

    Exploding scuba tank kills one - Florida

    Good question, If I was to hazard a guess I would have to go with the group with the least available resources or knowledge. I doubt the percentages of events would actually differ, however, would suspect the volume to be heavy on one side. I can always, inspect any cylinder that comes in the...

    Exploding scuba tank kills one - Florida

    Not exactly, you asked him to provide the work, that means he made no demands upon you, while he asks you to trust him and the service he provided, the choice to trust them before and after is yours.

    Exploding scuba tank kills one - Florida

    During that time, the families did not sue the manufacture when a DIY person was injured by the self maintained equipment either. Demanding a dive shop owner to accept responsibility for your work goes a bit further in todays society. Generally the person who runs the risk to life and limb is...
