Zeagle bladder question

[scubajoeT]

Can anyone tell me if a 24# bladder from a Zeagle Scout will work on my Stiletto? I like the bottom dump configuration of the newer bladders, compared to the single/buried bottom dump on my old Stiletto. I don't need much lift as I only dive warm water and use ~8 pounds of lead (max).

Thanks,
Joe

Can you remove the wing from your Stiletto now?

I had a Stiletto some years ago. IIRC the bladder was sewn to the jacket. At the time Stiletto's were not made/assembled in the FL factory but were a buyout.

You can sort of tell on the Zeagle website where they indicate the lift. If it's just Lift plus a single number - likely not interchangeable. If the Lift is XX to XX bladders are interchangeable. Some also show a mnimum lift value indicating interchangeability also.

There's other Zeagle wings available but they're pretty pricey. http://www.mcssl.com/store/zeagleexpress/catalog/search?keyword=zeagle+bladder has most of them

Don't quote me on this but I believe just about all the interchangeable bladders work on any BC. I know a Scout bladder on a Ranger is sold as the Phoenix in some shops - including mine. Scubatoys sells a similar model.
