I have a D6i for about a year with over 100 dives on it. Never had a problem with the transmitter or the strap breaking/tearing. Great choice of DC!
thanks for the note Cephasiii, gives me a boost of confidence! Ordered it today from Simply Scuba who did some great price matching and it's on its way and due tomorrow!
Anyone looking to buy online with delivery in the UK consider these guys, they were very helpful, no fuss and all being well (not withstanding British Post) I'll have the dc and transmitter tomorrow.
Feels like Christmas all over again
