I vacation once or twice a year and try to dive a few times during each vacation. With this low number of dives (I did 4 in Tahiti this past July) I don't know if it makes sense to spend $$ on my own regulator. I have a BCD as I am 6'4" tall and the rentals don't fit as well as a computer and mask/fins/snorkel. I am concerned not only about the price but of maintenance as I understand these should be serviced regularly (once a year? twice a year? cost?).
I'm heading off to Fiji in a few weeks and the place I am staying wants $25 F$ a day to rent a regulator, this is about $15 a day. If I dive for four or five days the rental fee starts to add up.
Suggestions about the cost of purchasing my own vs. spending about $100 renting for my trip??
