Question Scubapro Litehawk for Temperate Water Diving

[gokulsrinivas]

Hey kind folks of scubaboard, I would like to get some advice.

I recently dived here in Spain with a hooded 5mm wetsuit, 6kg of weight and a 12L tank and I recently stumbled across a good deal on a used scubapro litehawk.

I believe it would be perfect for my warm-water travel diving but I'm not sure if it would have enough lift (29.2 lb/ 13.2kg) for temperate water diving (mediterranean) with a 5mm wetsuit. Any advice or opinions?

Thank you!

Yes, 30 lbs of lift is enough for you.

Thank you so much!

Also the older LiteHawks had 240N ( 50+pound) bladders and were rated for 18L tanks. Looks like they have trimmed the bladder on the latest versions or changed their rating method. ScubaPro puts a tag on their BCs/wings showing the rated lift. You might check the one that you are interested in to see.

Thank you for the info! I will double check it with the seller, but I believe it's 3 years old and the newer model with the trimmed bladder.
