aqualung VS zeagle

[paulyray114]

I'm converting from the jacket style BCD to the back inflate and was wondering ( in everyones opinion) what the differences in the Zeagle ranger VS the aqualung black diamond are? They're both in the same price range within a few bucks difference . I'm torn between the two. Anyone have any input regarding this ?

the Apeks WTX ? its a BPW also made by Aqualung... and I believe it wont cost you as much as the Black Diamond will...

To be honest they are probably both so similar that you should go with either the better deal or the store you like better. I use a Ranger but I bought it from the LDS that I did my training with. My closer LDS sell the Black Diamond which I did not look at. I generally just go with the LDS I used for training. I do like that you can swap bladders in the Ranger and can convert to a BP/W later. The modular sizing was a major reason for me though since my Ranger fits like it was made just for me, and it kind of is. If you don't need the bladder size of these two, I'd say check out Scubatoys Zeagle Brigade. I doubt you will go wrong either way but I'd lean towards Zeagle to possibly get a better fit.
