I been a PADI certified rescue diver for over 40 years and was thinking of either purchasing a hookah system for FL beach dives in max 20' of water about 100-200 yds offshore behind my home. I mainly want to explore and spearfish or harvest lobster and tie off a kayak to the reef.
I was looking at this commercial unit:
or building one based off this air pump
The cons of DIY are by the time I buy all quality components it will total almost the first option. I wanted to use a good lithium battery ($120), quality 50" air hose & 2nd stage reg ($150), pump ($129) and various fittings & float ($100)
What do you think is the better option?
