Andy,

Can non cave divers try and help?

This is probably a good starting point if you haven't already found it - it has a section on reels.

Here's a further post:

It sounds like you're building an equipment checklist for a DIR diver - post it in here when you've finished so everyone can discuss it

Personally I'd like to see a definitive recommended tank/backplate material/exposure suit/fresh or salt water combinations chart for DIR - settle some of the never ending debates about steel versus Al backplates, steel versus Al tanks, etc for diving wet or dry, in fresh and salt water, so if someone is diving in a 7mm full wetsuit in cold salt water and they would like to dive doubles, they can look up the chart to see if twin 80 Als or twin PST 104s are most appropriate! Shouldn't take much more than a decade or so to compile!
