I think this one pretty much covers it all ...

Ha ha HA! If it's at the surface, it's technically not the Warhammer Maneuver. LOL.

I'm surprised you didn't get cold on that Casino Dive! :shocked2:

I finally found the Warhammer maneuver pic.
I've seen octopus do something like that.

LOL, and I use a 400g in 50-53 F water.

I still dive wet at that temp. But only for about 20 minutes.:cold:

Gotta wonder about the weird doctor lady reference though...

I assumed he was referring to Lynn (TS&M)

"Why are these California charters such nazis?!"

"I may as well join those weird vintage divers." "Don't worry, he's not that desperate."

You can also start out with a 5' hose that doesn't need routing under a light can. But you're gonna love having a light can in our waters !

I cant do a goodman handle can light because of the large camera rig. I have a nocturnal lights setup thats good for fill lighting as well as a very nice focus light. The only drawback is that it eats up the batteries. Has anyone figured out how to wire up a can light battery pack to a dslr rig?

If you have an 18W or 21W Halcyon, Salvo, Leviathan, or Light Monkey HID you can switch between a goodman handle and a video reflector. You can also purchase an additional light and add a Y connector with E/O plugs and hook up two lights or more at once.

I get about 6 hours of burn time with one light and 3 with two. Here is link to a short night dive video with two of the above lights.
