Fla. spring diving Feb. 16th-19th?

You forgot the power inverter so we can watch dvd movies on the long drive down!

LOL~~ I have already had one. I brought it with an electronic water kettle (boiler), but it didn't work out due to the demanding high voltage. We have had the ramen and ginseng tea....

One more, I bought the outdoor light for the night diving. We won't lost anything behind.....

Yep, that would be a problem. I only bought a 400 watt unit. I would think
to boil water itwould have to be a direct battery connection and an inverter
rated up around 1000 to 1200 watts. Seeing how my pc is only rated at 60
watts I should have no problems.
Well, I was going to let Mr. Huffy, "trouble maker," pick out the dvd's for the
trip, I'm HAVING SECOND THOUGHTS. Do you like Sponge Bob Wally??

Trip is a GO! Blow the ballast, full speed ahead!

:rofl2: SPONGE BOB!! I will watch just about anything. I haven't made the step into the DVD world so I don't have my own collection.

Blow the ballast and full steam ahead!! Would you believe I hung up from talking with you and JP and started pulling dive gear out of the closet?
BTW, make sure the car has a cassette deck in it if we want to listen to satellite radio, that is unless you want it hardwired.eyebrow

Don't worry... If not, Chris will have FM transmitter to the Radio...

Don't forget he is IT and gadget guy

The only way to play it, unless it is hard wired, is through a cassette deck.The way it comes packaged is the power comes from the cigarette lighter. The sound is through the cassette part of the car radio. I guess we could cut the wires and attach it to his computer speakers. I plan on hard wiring it in my truck anyway.

Note to self...self, pack a soldering iron.

If you don't like a wired one, you can hook up your new toys to the radio channel by using FM transmitter. I used to use this way when the car Audio makers didn't manufacture CD player yet. It was 1989 when SONY produced the first portable CD player. I got it directly from Japan......

Wally, doubtfull there are many cars around with cassettes any more, you
can try this if the reciever has a ear phone jack,

Now if you really want to get out the soldering iron you can build this,

I think this one is my favorite, but I don't think there is room in the car!!!

Hey guys, I'm really looking forward to this trip. I guess my weekend will be spent getting all the camp gear together and making sure everything works o.k.

The dive gear is ready to go except I need to buy some lights for the cavern and night dive.

This weekend will be all the prep time I will have, I've got to fly out to Denver next weekend so it will be here in no time. :yelclap:

I didn't waste any time at all starting to dig things out. I hung up from talking with you guys and began. Part of it is laying in a pile in the spare bedroom,aka the dive closet, but I did start.
