    First time traveler - airline rules

    Hello everyone, I am planning for my first airline trip with dive gear. I intend to take everything carry-on. I am unclear about the regulations on cutters. Is my safety cutter on my harness considered as something that can only go in checked luggage? Thanks in advance for the clarifications.

    Multi-gas dive

    I'm not sure how to search for previous posts on this topic. If it has been discussed please point me to the thread. If it has not, can anyone list for me the computers that will allow me to switch gas mixtures mid dive? I don't need helium or anything fancy at this point. I would like to switch...

    Heres how the weight pocket project went... After a entire evening of my life that I will never get back I decided I would not be able to sew pockets together by this weekend.

    Sac?

    I have recently come across the designation SAC. I cannot remember what it stands for. I am thinking it has something to do with rate of air consumption. Can anyone refresh my memory please? Thanks.

    Electrical math

    When overdriving a lamp is there a factor of reactance which effects the E*I formula? Running a 50w lamp at 12v draws 4.16w. Does sourcing the same lamp with 18v cause 74.9w and draw the same 4.16w? Thanks for the clarification. Murf
