    Ear infections a constant problem

    Ear beer of 50/50 vinegar and alcohol and pro plugs. The Navy studies on eardrops showed that the key to efficacy is leaving the drops in the ear for 5 minutes, not simply squirting them in and dumping them out. I was very skeptical of pro plugs until I used them while diving multiple days in...

    Sherwood SR-1 Free Flows at Cold Water Depth

    Man, I actually feel bad for the Sherwood rep here for the pounding he is taking! I think Sherwood makes, and has always made, excellent regulators. I have dove them and continue to dive them. I think the old Sherwood Ultima which consisted of an Oasis first stage and a Poseidon Odin second...

    ear infections

    What about the Doc Proplugs? Do they help with preventing swimmer's ear? Doc's Proplugs: The Doctor's Choice for Ear Protection I use them for multi-day cave diving. In the past I inevitably ended up with an ear infection around the third day. None with the proplugs. I feel like a dork...

    cold water reg

    When I'm diving OC I use either Poseidon or Aqualung Legend LX Supreme. Both are excellent in any conditions. Dive mainly in the Great Lakes where temps are routinely in the 40's on the bottom year round. In colder water I have frequently inhaled small bits of ice that build up and then fall off...

    Scubamax / Scubapro Frameless??

    Another nice frameless is the Oceanic Shadow/Sherwood Mako/XS Scuba Merge. Everyone is differrent so YMMV but this one fits me better than the Scubapro and seems to have marginally better peripheral vision. The Atomic which is a great looking mask just didn't fit me. Seemed to be for a narrower...

    Diving Concepts Dry Gloves

    I have a pair of size large, crushed neoprene DC dry gloves (gloves only, no rings) that have been gathering dust for a couple of years. I think they're brand new and I picked them up as spares before I switched systems. If you're interested PM me an offer. Gary

    Top ten great lakes wreck dives?

    Gotta add some great Lake Michigan wrecks including the Lakeland, Gallinipper, Vernon, Silver Lake and Pringle. But really love the Florida, Windiate, Norman and Spangler over in Huron too! Really want to see the Doty, Hart, Gunilda and Kamloops and probably all deserve to be on a top 10...

    Status on Silicone Zip Seals

    Why not use the Si-tech permanent wrist seal system which can be used on any suit and with any seals; silicone or latex. Can also easily pull drygloves over the top. YouTube - Si Tech Silicon Wrist Seals

    Cabo Accident?

    I was informed by a family member of the death of a diver from my hometown over the weekend. I guess they assumed since we both dive I would know him. He was about 5 yrs older than me and I didn't know him but thought maybe someone else here might have. I have to say that is one hell of an obit...

    Recommend a small LED light for OW diving

    Have a Dorcy (actually Penetrator 220 from Piranha) and an Intova. Prefer the Dorcy and it is available at a better price as well.

    Light for Warm Water Day Diving?

    This was going to be my recommendation as well. Add the goodman handle for "wrist" mounting. A buddy bought the handle and it's a nicely made little accessory.
