Hi,
I wish i didn't have to write this but I am so confused with soooo many options out there that I think I need some advice. Here's the dillema: I have been diving for over 10 years, put in 150+ dives mostly warm water and consider myself an advanced diver. Been using a jacket style Mares BCD that I really like and have no complains about but recently I have become intrigued by the back inflated BCDs and wanted to get one. I am also seriously considering getting my feet wet into Tech diving but have not started down that path yet. There's a lot of options out there and since money wasnt such a big factor I was looking at the top of the Zeagle line of BCD which I was told can be used in both recreational and tech diving. However, the Ranger although it seems to be an excellent BCD, just comes with a lot of stuff that I dont need and it is very heavy and bulky so I have started researching BP/W setups. Just read a long thread on the Zeagle Express Tech and it seems like a good mutli purpuse BC but can it be really used with a 2 tank setup? Also, what setup would you recomend if I were to go for a SS back plate to minimize the weight used during the dive? Bear in mind that I need something that I can used for warm and cold water in 1 or 2 tank configurations. Thanks in advance!
