Well, here is what we ended up with:
Zeagle Brigades
Aeris Atmos AIs
Oceanic Delta3/TDX5 regs
Oceanic Slimline Octos
Bare 3/2 wetsuits
Tusa X-Pert Zoom Fins
Tilos Masks maybe?
Boots/Snorkel
2 AL80 tanks
Zeagle Shear/knife packs
Zeagle weight pocket bags
Safety Sausages
Trident noise and Mini-Hammerhead
Mini Q40 lights
Mesh weights
And a few other items that I am sure I am forgetting. First of all, ScubaToys rocks. Big time. They took great care of my daughter and I. I will be going back there for all future purchases.
About the AI pressure gauge being inaccurate. It seemed to be dead on today. I drained one tank dry in my brothers pool and watched the pressure level run down to zero. When it read zero, I had about 1-2 more minutes and then I couldn't get anymore decent breaths off of it. That gave me a good chance to do a real OOA drill with my daughter who was waiting there to do it with me.
Y'all talked me out of the octo/inflator. I just went with a regular Oceanic Slimline Octo and I am liking it a lot now that I have a couple of hours on it. I clipped it up higher on my chest on the right side near where the octo/Inflator would have sat and can get it in my mouth without having to detach it from its clip. That's a pretty nice setup I think without the safety concerns of the octo/inflator setup.
One other issue I have just found while searching the board is... there may be a problem with me using Nitrox and my titanium reg. I don't plan on ever using a mix of 40% or more, but is there a concern at the lower mix levels as well?
Thanks again for all the input.
