I find it rather curious that you are the only customer that I am aware of who has had a leakage problem...two canisters, no less! Why have you not bothered to email me to let me know?...I would then have sent you replacements at no cost to you. I would also be interested to have them...

No need to be a smart arse. I've seen enough of Asia and the rest of the world to be aware of infrastructure limitations. My point is that in every case of missing divers the Indonesian authorities have been alerted and did conduct a Search and Recue effort. The local authorities would be...

A few years ago the day boat I was on out of Sharm left a Portuguese tech diver behind on the Thislegorm...and it had nothing to do with the current. The diving conditions were quite good. Just a bad head count before the return trip. This was with Camel Dive...one of the best dive operators in...

I'm inclined to agree with much of what you say. A few months ago I dived there with the same guide (Oslan) and probably from the same boat. Oslan was an excellent dive guide...and despite tough conditions the boat crew did a good job. The bottom line is that we engage in a potentially...

There are many types of material that O-rings are made from. Some are more suitable for some applications/environments than others. Also, whether or not O-ring grease is recommended can depend upon the equipment used and how the seal is achieved. A simple compression seal can usually manage...

Well, if for some reason there is a genuine fault (unlikely) you are covered by warranty...just ask and you will get a replacement. Send them back! Talk/complain to the manufacturer! It's your right and sensible feedback always is useful. No the ebay listing doesn't say that that it will fit...

The fact that you used the "Topide only carry pouches" underwater says it all! As is pointed out on the website (and the ebay listing) the pouches are NOT DESIGNED FOR UNDERWATER USE...and should not be used underwater! Also, if you don't apply O-ring grease to the O-rings of course they will...

That was the case a few years ago when the only available purpose built canister was the large, heavy and expensive McMurdo FastFind PLB Dive Canister. Also, being machined from aluminum I always worried that the threads on my unit would corrode and prevent opening in an emergency. That old...

This is absolutely not true! Why are you pushing a "rescue system" that at best would be of limited range use on a very well organized/funded dive boat such as a top class liveaboard. Even then the range of these UHF or VHF systems is basically line of sight...10 km or so. Such a "device"...

It depends where they were diving...the most popular dive location (indeed, the reason most divers go there) is Barracuda Point, which is about 1.5 hours each way from the resort. I dived there with Oslan a few months ago. While diving with the Barracuda was indeed spectacular I was very aware...

I only dived with Agnes once when she was studying Marine Archaeology here in Adelaide. I didn't get to know her but she struck me as a lovely young woman. The circumstances of her death bring back some very unpleasant memories of the deaths of friends and acquaintences at "The Mount" during the...

Hi...I've just joined Scubaboard because of your thread on the Seatool for the GF1. I'm trying to decide between the Seatool and the Inon. The latter will be available here in Adelaide, Australia in a couple of weeks (at the local UW Photo equipment store)...but no one here brings the Seatool...
