Mix and match wings and BCs.

Not really pictures, but some of the data I've collected is here (though as pointed out, specs do change over time) http://www.kidspot.org/personal/scuba/bpwing.html - while the TP is not listed, if it's the same spacing as DiveRites plate it needs to stay with a wing that has 5.25" spacing between the cam band slots. Dive Rite has the widest spacing of any plates that I've found so far, making an STA necessary with many other brand wings (Halcyon is the smallest at 3") - on the other hand, Dive Rite wings will fit nearly any spacing 3"-5.5" but many other wings are made for a specific placement.

All this is contingent on how they made the T.P. - looking at the owners manual, it appears it would have the same "potential" issues as a plate would have.

Sry to ramble on ...

Don Janni - could you measure this for me? (the solid area between where the cam bands thread) and I'll add that info to the chart.

Aloha, Tim

P.S. this has been the hardest data point to collect so far, but 3" - 4" seems to be the more common measurement.

Your common measurement of 3" to 4" makes me wonder if I'm taking the right measurement... from the bottom edge of the top camband to top edge of the lower is 5.5".

Centerline to centerline there is 7.5" between the two cambands.

Let me know if I took the wrong measurement or if you want another.

Thanks Don,

5.5" is the correct one - so the TP and their plate have very close spacing. It does vary a LOT I've found from plate to plate to Transplate

Aloha, Tim

P.S. 3-4" is the most common size for plates other than DiveRite that I've found.
