Nice shots!

Thanks for the feedback guys. I contacted my local DR dealer, who said that they were unable to source replacement bulbs for my light; and are also unable to source the DR LED replacement innards. The best he could do was offer my a complete head replacement, with the LED model, at about 60% of...

what would the symptom of a failed ballast be? how to tell? (can you check current against some expected value?)

Underwater Kinetics Replacement Bulb for Light Cannon ?

Hi guys Six months ago, I bought a second-hand DR 10W HID cannister light. From looking at the DR website, it appears to be MR11 Sunspot HID Slimline Light (based on appearance, and dimensions of cannister). http://www.diverite.com/products/catalog/retired/lt6250mr11-ss The last few dives...

We land in Sydney at 10:10am, and will probably head straight up from there. I've still got to pack, hahah.

Do we have a list of attendees? I'm just now printing out my boarding pass, car reservation voucher, and driving directions from Sydney. Getting ready to get on a plane in about 20 hours! See you all soon.

I got in 100+ in 2010, my first full year of diving.

Not sure there's much left in PADI-land that interests us right now, unless we're in a mood for card-collecting. We're both going to be doing BSAC dive-leader early next year, and have recently got into cave-diving, so that's where our focus is right now.

Just reserved a spot for Greg and myself for that week.

So, uwogre - are you here now?

From Jon's website (quoted below) the base price is really pretty good already! Dive Prices - Fish Rock Dive Center at South West Rocks midweek special Our great value midweek special includes the following: 8 boat dives - usually a double boat dive Monday to Thursday inclusive (variation...

OZTeK is Sat 12 March to Sun 13 March. Jon's "midweek special" covers Mon-Thur diving (4 days), including accommodation. So we would have Friday to get to Sydney (465km).

We did a scallop dive at Sorrento marina ~4pm Sunday, and the vis was excellent.

>> "Oh no, not again"! Fisheyeview quoting the Whale in HHGTTG I get the feeling that's a joke that's going right over my head... Am I the only one uptight enough to point out that it's actually the bowl of petunias, not the whale, that has that line? The whale has the rapid discovery of self...

40 mins in which direction? Much of the good diving is SE.

Thanks for the trip report Harry. I was on the last half of this trip with you, and still have your card stuck in my log book :)

I did the 5D/4N trip a couple of months back, and it was great. IIRC the flights into Cairns aren't super late - probably a curfew because the airport is pretty close to the city. For Wed 27th Oct, I can see 18:40 Brisbane => 21:05 Cairns (Virgin Blue) 19:55 Brisbane => 22:20 Cairns...

I just did the SoF with < 100 dives under my belt, and no problem at all. The diving is easy, you won't get lost, and you can just buddy up with whoever is around. You don't need to pay for a guide, imho.
