So,
I just finished my open water PADI cert down in Cozumel. Now, I tend to be the sort of person who keeps on learning things in any hobby I get into and I plan on going through to at least the DM level in PADI. This would be purely for my own personal edification, I don't much want to teach professionally although volunteering would be something I'd do.
I do not mind spending money on gear and have dropped a ton on my other hobbies so I want to get a setup that I won't outgrow anytime soon. I hope to do deeper water dives, cold water dives, cave dives, etc.
Right now my gear choices are
Regulator - Oceanic Delta 4 with DVT
Atomic SS1 inflator/octopus one piece
Oceanic Veo 250 with compass
The last piece I'm unsure of is the BC. I'd been thinking of a Zeagle Ranger but the more I tool around these forums the more it looks like people like BP/W setups. Would it be a bad idea to just get one right away? If not which one? The Halycon or Dive Right? Can I get one setup that would be predominantly used for one tank but takes two tanks? Will the Atomic work with the setup?
I plan on heading back to Cozumel and then to Bonaire within the next 15 months and also plan on tooling around local resevoirs/holes near me before then.
