Ok silly question now that I have my own equipment.
Why hang the BCD up? For drying sure, but Im pretty sure it would be dry after a week. Im not saying fold it up in a tight little ball (not that you could) but is there any difference in laying it out in a closet full of shelves vs hanging it up?
Is there any other regular maintenance that should be done?
We have already found by trial and error that things like wet suits dry out better when we turn them inside out.
But do I need to "change the oil" on anything?
I have
Delta 4.1 Regs with the DVT
Neo Octopus
Excursion and Hera BC for my daughter
6 or 7 wetsuits (mostly from wakeboarding but I see no reason they wont work for scuba)
Mask, snorkle, fins
Atom 2 computer (still havent got that all figgured out yet, way lots of stuff to read through) - Im sure it says so, but should I take the batteries out? Or risk the grain of sand in the seal?
And a big Rambo knife that the dive shop threw in. (Gonna audition for Rambo 16, Rambo, Walkers Unleashed)
