Jeez, Mine is only 7 months old, already "old inventory". Any chance of an upgrade?


Are you having to wear a weightbelt with the unit? If the answer is no then why? The upgrade is only slightly more weight capacity, all else remains the same.
I didn't even bother to change my sample.

Sorry, didn't realise the lift stayed the same.

Well IMOH there were times I wish I'd had more lift while using 12 lbs in chop. 30 lbs lift would be nice on the Med. But thats the only criticism I have. Overall a very nice travel BCD.
 
Just got back from Tioman. Finally I get to use my new BC. Find no problem about face down on the surface at all if not fully inflated. With the 3kg weight I carried on the belt I found no problem with surfacing even when not fully inflated. Also tried putting weights on the tank but I still feel weight belt is better. Over all I'm very happy with my new BC.
