    Securing A Rebreather In A Vehicle

    I strap it against the isofix top tether mounts at the rear of the back seats, they are probably not designed for that, but so far they seem to be holding

    Vascular Microbubbles Sensor

    the idea is fascinating, but the price is very steep for an unproven software (ultrasonic dopplers can be found for less than 50$) self evaluation of venous bubbles after diving has come up on this board a few times already but I am not aware if there is any scientific consensus on its usefulness

    Future of Helium price?

    currently the only approved unit for the ccr class is the JJ, the RB80 being a PSCR has it's own class for which tech 2 + 25 T2 dives is still a prerequisite (which makes sense since you still have bottle rotations and gas switches)

    DIR- Generic Which gloves for drygloves

    been using 660s for years without much troubles, just turn them inside out after diving so they have a chance to dry. for the fit what exactly is the issue? you could try to go one size up for thick undergloves? dishwasing gloves like marigolds rip way too easily in my opinion

    Deco planner software recommendation

    diveplan2 (on android, not sure if there is an iOS version) is pretty handy, dual algorithm like multideco but in a much more modern interface, it's oriented toward gue apprach to deco so ymmv (particularly if you dont use standard gases it's probably not worth it) Profiles generated are within...

    Predator EXT SCR mode

    Hey All, Does anyone have any specific on how does it work? I thought it would use the readings from the external sensor for the deco calculations but then what is the difference from the CCR mode? just missing fixed pO2 option? I looked in all the manuals I could find but there are very few...

    Kubi dry gloves...

    I found the 720Rs very easy to damage and aquasure does not stick as well as on 660s they are both thicker than the marigolds normally used with Kubi rings, but they are wormer and will puncture instead of tearing

    Broke even CCR vs OC fills costs!

    The pro's and con's of rebreathers are a whole another discussion but if we really want to go down that road, the real deciding factor for me was "do i need one?"

    Broke even CCR vs OC fills costs!

    Yes exactly, OC equipment was not included (as the spreadsheet was made for my case), CCR training costs were assumed inside the 10K initial CCR expense. Counting OC gear would make the break-even time shorter, although the biggest impact would be buying a cheaper second hand unit, if you can...

    Kubi glove options

    just fyi you can use the atlas gloves (or any cotton lined gloves) with the kubi ring, you just have to flip the cuff so that the seal with the ring is happening with the external part of the gloves (and the o-ring is than sandwiched in the gloves), there was an older thread around here that...

    Broke even CCR vs OC fills costs!

    Since the cost per minute is obviously favoring CC break even is possible, it's more of a matter of when that happens, as the initial investment is consistent (if you buy a new unit) When I tried to run the same math I found that it would take me something like 9 years at 20 mix dives / year...

    Kubi Dry glove rings with blue smurf gloves

    I'd like to add my experience also as I just went thru this ordeal... Firstly, whoever managed to install smurf gloves using the original (smallest) o-ring must be a wizard, as I could not get even close, what I did was use the o-ring that usually seals with the cuff side (the second to...

    Petrel shows 1m depth at surface

    After a dive on sunday I found my petrel kept showing 1m even after surfacing, resetting it (by pulling the battery) seems to have fixed it (it worked fine on today's dive). is my depth sensor on its way out? anyone else had it happening? Incidentally, I also noticed that the difference between...

    Cancun Airport to Puerto Adventures

    sure its not 38$/day? 110USD per day seems like a lot for a small car.. I recently rented in pdc a jetta for 60usd/day insurance included

    Dive-Xtra Piranha

    Their website says 120 min at cruise for each battery. Are the battery flyable? That would be quite a bonus..

    Drysuit class

    No, the cath has glue on the inside, there is a small risk of back flow if you get a kink in the hose. If you do a search on this forum you'll find a lot of helpful threads on p valve usage..

    Are Salvo Lights as Good as Light Monkey?

    If salvo used the same 18w bulb as halcyon they are no longer made so keep that in mind. But if you go for a late salvo model (sealed lipo battery) I think they are the same as a light monkey. (only the logo is less cool I suppose ;D )

    Are all wings created equally ?

    while the holes for mounting are pretty much standard things like: shape (donut,horsehoe), capacity (should fit the cylinders you are using), corrugated hose length and dump valve placement can differ. check it fits your requirements!
