My husband currently dives 5mm in cool 18 degree to warm 26 degree water, both locally and internationally using his Halcyon Eclipse 30lb Steel plate and loves it.
He has put on some weight and is finding he doesn’t have enough lift when fully inflated in rough condition. I looked into changing the wing to a 40lb and the cost is half of a new bcd so we are considering just purchasing a whole new kit which then should last him til the end of our diving days - we are both in our 60’s
He will only buy Halcyon ( I have no chance with any other brand) so I’m looking at either another Eclipse, Infinity or Adventurer.
I‘m not too bothered about the weight for travel as we generally travel with plenty of luggage weight available to us.
We would appreciate your thoughts.
Cheers
Di

- Thoughts on Stainless, Aluminium or Carbon backplates?
- Is the Infinity a better bcd in terms of features and usability than the others?
We would appreciate your thoughts.
