Dive Rite Transpac II

[ONESPEED]

I've seen Dive Rite Trans Pac II's offered online and was wondering if anyone knows the difference between a Trans Pac and Trans Pac II.

I think it is just bells and whistles. The Trans Pac is the older version. I have the Trans Pac II and I LOVE IT!!!!

How long have you had yours? I purchased a Trans Pac about six months ago and was just wondering which one I have since there is no info on Diverites website. What wing are you using?

6 months ago and it will be the 2. I don't think that they label it like that anymore - it just says Transpac.

Thanks Kim, do you know what the difference is? Just curious. When I bought mine from my LDS I was told it was the new generation so I am assuming I have the II.

I never saw the original Transpac but my Transpac II says on the badge. When we bought another one much later for a friend of mine it didn't say it was the II anymore - just Transpac. It was identical to mine though.

Oh well, I bought it from a very reputable dive shop who told me it was "next generation" so I assume it is the II. Either way I love it. I'm using a Recwing, what wing are you diving with yours?

I'm using a classic wing with mine, great with my doubles, but it is total overkill when diving a single tank, so I need to get one of the smaller bladders.

I use the travel wing. It's fine for any single tank that I've ever used - my own tanks are 14ltr steels - that's a big steel tank. Packing it up for travel on planes is great - really light and easy.

Thanks for the tip, I travel quite a bit and have been contemplating a travel wing, anything else I should know about the travel wing or are you perfectly happy with it?
