    What did I buy?

    $40 is a good deal for a steel tank (assuming it passes the hydrostatic test).

    Odd question to ask

    The construction of an electronic dive log would be better suited in a database, such as Access or SQL, as opposed to a spreadsheet. Adam

    Salvo/Dive Rite/Sartek

    When researching a few replacement components for my Sartek 10 watt, I found www.solarc.net, a division of Welch Allyn. It appears that they provide the bulb, and the ballast for many of the big names in the HID community. Adam

    Is my HID burnt out?

    It's funny that you mention that, I had turned the light on briefly on Saturday night as I was prepping my gear (a practice I don't normally do), and it hasn't worked since. Good point. Thank you.

    Thank you for all of the tips. Adam

    Is my HID burnt out?

    P.S. That's a negative on another unit to test the bulb in. (although I wish I had spare HID lights laying around)

    Is my HID burnt out?

    I have a multimeter, I'll take a look at the battery voltage to make sure it's sufficient. Adam

    Is my HID burnt out?

    Greetings, I should preface this thread with the fact that I have a Sartek 10watt HID focusable lighthead, mated to a "Stealthdive" canister. My light is not turning on. When I switch the power on to my lighthead, the bulb flickers very faintly (if at all) and if I put it up to my ear I...

    HID lights

    I also have been very pleased with my Sartek 10watt HID head paired up with a Stealthdive cannister. My only complaint would be that I can't adjust the beam below ~40'. But I'm not sure how much design can overcome basic physics. Adam

    Regulator servicing tools

    Interesting, I'm still a fan of the balanced adjuster from www.scubatools.com, it makes it quite easy for fine adjustments to the cracking effort. Adam

    Scubapro Regs... What's the difference? Which one to get?

    On the subject of which SP regulator to get, I would recommend getting the Mark 16 diaphragm 1st stage, and any balanced second stage, the 550 is a good choice. Internally the 550 and 600 are the same, except you do not have the user adjustability of "detuning" your 2nd stage. (something you...

    St. Moritz M1 Dive Watch

    I guess I should add that my only complaint about the watch is that I cannot read it in the dark. There is no backlighting of the display. Sure, the bezel has small glow in the dark dashes but it is very hard to discern the different marks. Adam

    St. Moritz M1 Dive Watch

    I have the St. Moritz Nereos 1 watch, which has been successfully taken to 175'. Looks good on the surface as well, doesn't look like a laptop on your wrist. Adam

    Help with Bare Trekboots Please.

    I purchased the size 12 trekboots, and without modification they did fit in the XXL Jetfin pocket. The Jetfin is not what I prefer to dive with (I use the Twin jets) so I began to the boots to fit. (shaving the sides down) Eventually, I just went back to my trusty DUI Rockboots. (I enjoyed...

    Help with Bare Trekboots Please.

    Initially, when I purchased my trekboots, I grinded down the sides to help them fit better with my fins. This was a very frustrating and tedious process. Unmodified, the trekboots did fit in the XXL Jetfins footpocket. But that’s not that surprising as I was also able to wedge in a small...

    NiMH battery pack questions

    Tobin, Thank you for the prompt response, I have the Maha C777 universal charger. For what's it's worth - I have the Sartek 10watt HID head, with the Stealhdive canister. Adam
