Not underwater, but off the boat on a dive trip.

When I surface at the end of a dive, I gag as soon as I remove the regulator from my mouth. Dry air combined with my use of Scopolamine does it every time.

I have been diving the Hollis for maybe two years now. It breathes incredibly easy at any depth. I do photography and like the side discharge. It is a servo assist, which is why you may notice that it seems easier to breath when you inhale. If you press the purge, you can blow the tartar off...

I dive in a DUI TLS 350 and love it. It has never leaked and dries very quickly. It's easy to get it on and easier still to get it off. I got it with zip seals, so when a seal breaks, I can fix it on the boat. My previous suit was the Bare Tech Dry. It felt much more confining (really not a...

I can answer some of these. 1. I have no idea. I thought it was some kind of extra padding you could use, but I guess it might be a cover for the screen. 2. When you open the "computer" screen and select "Icon", click on the "statistics" tab on the bottom and press the "synch" button. 3. No...

I also use the Arctic undergarment when it gets cold. It usually doesn't get down to 8 C here, but once it gets below 11 or 12 degrees, I will use it. It keeps me very warm for about an hour before I really begin to feel a chill. Even then it is tolerable. The only negative I have is if I...

I have no choice. It's really too bad. That was a fantastic primary light for recreational dives. We marked the coordinates of where the boat was anchored and plan on going back when the weather allows. I suppose there is always a minuscule chance I can find it. Thank you for the quick reply.

Last weekend, Poseidon demanded I give him my Edge Morph Backup light. Unfortunately, I had neither the remaining time or gas left to try and find it. I looked for another on your website, but it looks like you no longer have them. Is that correct?

I dive in Southern California, always from a boat. With typical viz, I usually find the boat about 30% of the time and was really getting tired of surface swims through kelp, sometimes fighting a current. I finally pulled the trigger and bought the Scout. Did my first dive with it yesterday and...

Finished. I have to say that I doubt any of my dental fillings were caused or aggravated by diving.

Email Brad Campbell at Mares in Florida. Email is BCampbell@us.mares.com He will either take care of it himself, or get you to someone who can help you within 1-2 working days.

One more thing you might check . . . you don't mention what type of light you are using, if any. My buddy dives a Sol and found that every time he turns on his ScubaPro light, he loses connection with the transmitter, no matter how close he gets the PDC to the transmitter. Once he turns off this...

I have a Henderson 8/7 that does a great job of limiting water ingress but I only wear it when it is around 60 degrees or above in the water AND the sun is out. This doesn't happen often. I prefer to dive a drysuit most of the time. With heavy undergarments, I use about 10 lbs more weight but I...

I'm leaving this feedback for anyone else that might be considering buying Oceanic. Maybe my experience will help you. Last week I sent my backup computer, an OCi back to Oceanic for repair. It had become "stuck" on a calibration screen and was giving wacky info. I contacted them via phone...

If you want to dive with an Aqualung Dimension, don't be put off by the comments here. The Dimension is a good, well-made and very comfortable back inflate BCD. It should last you for years. I have one and dive it regularly, though mine has the much maligned (on Scuba Board) I-3. I also have...

Once Hope Pharmaceuticals stopped making Scopace, I switched to Kwells. I get mine online from https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au.Shipping sucks, so buy in quantity. It cost about the same to ship 10 boxes as it does 1.

I understand completely what you want to do, and why. I have an Atom that I use as a backup when I dive solo. You are correct that it cannot be done. Your options are (1) switch the transmitter each time you switch to a different regulator, or (2) change the transmitter number in the computer's...

There is a large washer on the threads of the first stage. Making sure that that washer is in place, just screw it into the tank until it stops. Then take a wrench and tighten it just a tiny bit more to make sure that you cannot unscrew it by hand. Then take it and the fill adapter to your LDS...

DiveLogDt for the Mac does support Suunto D6i. I use the program specifically because it supports multiple computers. The D6i is on the list.
