    Doubles w/o manifold...

    I thought Hog was a philosophy and DIR was a methodology hmmm. btw, excuse my ignorance, what is the difference between a HOG rigged stage and a DIR rigged stage as referred to by DA in post 64, is it just the knot?

    Doubles w/o manifold...

    A lot of wreck divers (whose environments are typically more harsh in a lot of ways then caves) see line attachment as a potential point of failure (sharp ship hulls, currents, debris). Many still use brass rings. I have shed the rings, taco's and D's but, use a pretty thick nylon line. As...

    Rust Inside Steel Tank-Need Advice!

    1. Is this light surface rust normal? well its common anyway. after cleaning, an O2 safe rust inhibitor should be be used to prevent flash rusting during the drying process. To cleanout the light rust you described, you can tumble with ceramic media and avoid re-hydroing. If you using PP...

    TDI Gas Blender/Advanced Gas Blender, Fremont, OH February 12/13

    well considering one of the largest certifying agencies in world (also one of the most conservative, profitable and liability sensitive agencies) find it acceptable to sponsor a blending course that covers nitrox and trimix in one course, may indicate mixing is a one course certification. It...

    Snowmen & Diving

    Well that would just be silly now wouldn't it. The tech1 mix has more nitrogen. Actually with an almost insignificant END difference, and END's for either mix being less than 3ata, it really doesn't suggest anything.

    not really, actually the math is the same in this case - more like multiplication before mulitiplication right?

    TDI Gas Blender/Advanced Gas Blender, Fremont, OH February 12/13

    well, fair enough. I agree the philosphy part for actual in water diving, but for a blending course, its just seems like a profit vehicle. Nitrox, trimix, heliox, helitrox, heliair, triox... The only difference I see is creating hypoxic mixes. The blender course has no prerequisite and being...

    Purchase Question

    So what! Warranty is just that. You can still get the equipment serviced anywhere. All the shops I know service anything you bring them regardless of point of origin. You WILL have to payfor the service but in most cases is not expensive work. The money you save at LP (ScubaToys excluded)...
