Triple-L Orion and Pegasus

[stuie_]

Gday,
i'm looking at buying my BCD...
my instructor is pushing the Balance.

I saw an add in a magazine for Triple-L, a company who manufactors BCDS (among other things) if anyone knows anything about them, credible or not, quality or not etc please post.

Also, if anyone has specific knowledge on the Orion and Pegasus models... any information to further what's little is on their website would be nice.

If anyone knowledgable enough can make a comparison between these models and the Balance it would be a life saver.

Try clicking on the URL below. If that doesn't work just use the "Search" function on ScubaBoard and type in "Triple-L". There has been quite a bit of discussion about Triple-L products over the past couple of weeks.

I've been mulling over the Orion one too.... For 150$ I might buy it just to see how it is. 30 day return policy even after using it would allow leeway. Here's all the reviews I've been able to find.

My Orion is on the FedEx truck and should be delivered in the next couple of hours. :boings:

I do not like Jacket Style BCs and figured it was worth $150 to try it. (actually I spent $40 more and got the special package that includes the very large Languna bag/suitcase).

If I have time tonight I am hoping the get the bladder and harness put together tonight as I have 4 springs dives lined up for this weekend. I'll let you know Sunday night how it went.
