I've been diving the beta firmware for technical diving which should be out soon but right now it's $300 for something comparable to a Peregrine...

    Info Rix SA-6 Manual

    Alright, since Rix sent this with no questions asked and people keep asking me for it, here it is. This was sent to me by the engineers at Rix in 2020 as the most up to date copy they have, so it's about as good as it is going to get. Maybe @iain/hsm has something better, but this is the best...

    Review Orcatorch D700

    Cindy with Odepro was kind enough to send me an @OrcaTorch D700 for review. By some crazy coincidence this arrived abou 2 hours before I went on a dive trip so I am getting this out really quick! Box came, high quality carrying case which I will probably never use, but nice to have for a lot of...

    Review Orcatorch sD03

    A few months ago @OrcaTorch reached out to me and asked if I wanted to review the SD03 dive beacon. Customs decided to have their way with the package so it arrived just prior to me heading out for a work trip but I was able to get it in the water. Linking a stock pic below and will update with...

    Question Corrugated inflator hose from the left hip or the right hip?

    I've been sidemount diving since 2009. Back then our options were extremely limited and were essentially the Dive Rite Nomad, Hollis SMS100, Golem Gear Armadillo, and the Razor. Over the years I have owned many rigs, been given many rigs, and done prototype work on many rigs but I have always...

    Cave Country Tank Bench drawings

    PDF is attached of the Steve Boyer tank racks. These are famous all over cave country. This is the newer style currently installed at Madison Blue that was optimized for use with sidemount as well as doubles. Wanted to make sure this was immortalized.

    Wanted WTB 60lb doubles wing, donut only

    Like it said, hoping to get a 60lb wing. Love my 49lb Torus from DSS, but it's not enough lift for some of the dives that I'm doing now. Dual bladders OK, prefer Halcyon/Dive Rite. Classic XT would be ideal

    Blacktip Firmware File pre-silent mode

    Does anyone have the firmware files from before the silent mode that they could send me? Long story, but I'm working on something that would allow us to use this $100 ESC in the Blacktip for the Silent Submersion/Gavin/Tekna scooters.

    Alright all, and paging @Wookie as I think you've got experience with this. I picked up a used Sierra booster because I have no self control.

    NSS-CDS Effectiveness

    So what is the CDS actually doing these days? My last chat with the Chairman prior to Renee essentially told me the history of the organization and that's why I should renew. She was unable to give me any reason to renew other than access to Cow. Everything else was "well we did this", no the...

    Resizing Scubapro 109/156 mouthpiece

    Alright @couv this is where you get to tell me I'm an idiot. I have a bunch of 109's that need mouthpieces. Most of the mouthpieces I use are Apeks which are 1.3x0.68" openings and use them on my Poseidons that are 1.4x.81" openings. I just bought some generic mouthpieces that are the...
