Diving equipment added or removed ? September 2018.

[Carlos Danger]

Swapped out crappy Mares cargo pockets on my harness for much better made Scubapro equivalents. Also ditched an old shaker thingy to make room to clip-off/stow my GoPro stuff.

 

[Landau]

Replaced the black Bungee straps on my Scubapro Go warm water fins with Bright Orange straps!

I'm going to practice with them in the pool tonight to make sure I can handle this major change before going into the ocean with them

I have never tracked the “lumens” (...) one of the newer-fangled LEDs in the 24-32W range.

According to the information I found on the LM website, maximum lumens would be 2000 for a 24W and 4000 for a 32W LED.

A side mount rig. xDeep Stealth Tec redundant bladder, 2x LP50, 2x Deep6 1st stages, SPG, 2x CaveAdventurer ball swivels, hoses. Wanted more elegant redundancy that pony, spinal freedom, no turtling tendency, and more logistical flexibility than doubles. Six dives so far. Like it a lot. Really like looking all around me by twisting or arching, instead of needing to rotate like a cylinder.

Fancier Xtar VP2 battery charger (nice) to properly charge small battery for new Aquatic AAA/10440 light (meh) that I didn't really need and is not really much smaller than my AA/14500 DGX 300.

I removed those pull ball things attached to my OMS bcd dump valves. I replaced them with knotted cave line. one snagged once behind my wing when I was inflating it and I could not keep air in my BCD.

 

[Kharon]

I (today) replaced my plastic, white face SPG with a DGX brass and glass, blackface SPG. Because the DGX is a bit bigger and far easier to read, especially at night and the face won't scratch - at least not as easily.

 

[caruso]

Removed an HP port plug from 2 first stage regulators and replaced it with a mini spg on a thin hose to backup the AI wrist units me and my girlfriend dive with.

Ive done A lot of changes in the last 6 months.
went to a BPW, bought pony bottle, swapped out 120 tanks for 117s i think they trim much better, new rock boots (dog chewed the old ones i liked better)
in the last 2 weeks Ive got a new light monkey canister and it did its first dive today, I'm VERY happy with that purchase, did my blending course and got my nitrox stick all set up.

and in 2 weeks Im gonna do a side mount course so could very well be another big change for me. after that im done for a bit haha but thats easy I don't have a choice ill run out of money
