Well of corse not on O2 regs. Cleaning those requires a whole different approach.

I service a lot of Scubapro's and I tend to find on the older models that if I leave them in for longer than a minute the chrome will start comming off and the brass will turn red. And of corse red=bad so I prefer to wire brish it off gently unless its in a place where the piston contacts the...

Basically the process for cleaning a reg is: Disassembly Ultra sonic cleaning (45 seconds max) Drying with compressed air Wipe down with paper towels and Q-Tips Any "Crud" remaining is then gently taken off with a soft wire brush All new o-rings installed, piston wiped down and re-lubed...

If you want the inflator thats on the older Halcyon BC's is just a POS Trident inflator and you can buy a new one for about $14.00. With mine I just soak it in vinegar for no more than 30 sec and then I rinse it for 2 min in clean water and work all the buttons while soaking and rinsing. After...

I have an offer to get two steel 72's for a good price. I have searched, but can not find an answer. 1. The tanks have markings from wear they were doubled up. It looks like they were used in salt water a lot and now they have two big lines from the old bands. Can I steel wool the outside a...

Actually I have found the best way to get rid of the pain. Take a braw and put ice in each side and strap it to my head. I have full range of motion, plus I can still type with both hands. :D

Hotel Cozumel is a great hotel, the staff is nice and friendly and the rooms are well furnished. The food is on my scale C. They tried to make it fancy, but it didn't work too well, but there are so many places to eat in town that its not a big deal. Diving with Dive Paradise was great. We...

Last record free dive I watched (500ft?) the safty diver at the bottom was using a rebreather. So he probably didn't have to do any gas changes, but on OC you would have to do atleast two gas switches before you got to the bottom.

"Have you had any problems getting Nitrox fills anywhere you've gone diving?" Nope, but sometimes I had to look. "Are you glad you went with Nitrox ?" Yes, I learned many things from the corse "Have you noticed your gas consumption rate has reduced since using Nitrox (ie: higher blood...

At first I got a Casio for like 10$ but when I took it to 80ft the numbers got all funky, so I shelled out for a G-Shock and its a amazing watch. Solar powered all the neet little gizmos, and I got it 50% off :D

Haha ya, Its just 24/7 Jello for now.

I just got my wisdom teeth out today and now I can't go diving! For 2 weeks, whatever will I do. :( Ann well guess ill go to work :D

If your doing cold water I would recomend the Apeks. They just can't be beat. Well Scuabpro is getting close, but for reliability I would go with Apeks. The Dive Rtie is made by another manufactor and Aqualungs arn't anything special. They all use the same service parts so they all breath...

Probably the Air Z 02

What type of diving are you doing, cold water? warm water? deep? nitrox? O, and welcome to the board! :D

Yes, you can install it on almost any BC. My personal opinion on the AIR II is that its a little difficult to use when sharing air and asending at the same time, its kind of like playing a flute. And the hose on the BC is usually not long enough to make it very comfortable to use. And of...

There are many things that can cause your 2nd stage to malfunction. One way is to "puke" (Shakespeare) in your regulator. The fish might love it, but I sure don't like cleaning them out after someone. But if it does happen you can just unscrew the face plate, remove the diaphragm, retaining...

They did in the begining, but the problems are all fixed. And the free flow comes from having the adjustment knob set on dive unstead of pre-dive. If you try purging the regulator while in dive mode, yes it will free flow, but not once your underwater. Most high preformance regulators with...

Although I service Scubapro and Apeks I would have to recommend the Scubapro line for warm water diving. The Mk25 is a balanced-piston 1st stage, it delivers massive amounts of air at any depth (recreational depths,) its nitrox certified up to 40% and depending on which 2nd stage you pair it...
