Lake Muroc Diver
Contributor
While going through the exit gate on the Spectre out of Ventura today, I went to the left to give better room the previous diver that was hanging out at the entry point. Well, my gage pressure hose for the three gage console got caught on the gate corner and as I decended into the ocean, yanked the lanyard and then the console pretty hard.
When I got back on board, to fix a leak in the pressure hose to regulator area, I discovered that the computer was missing from the console.
I'm guessing that the big stretch on the console opened the receptacle and the computer was tossed out.
The lesson learned here is: apply a small bead of good RTV sealant to the carefully selected side of the computer before popping it into the console receptacle. This might prevent yours from flying out if the console gets smacked.
PS Can you buy an Alladin prime computer without the console?
