    G2 Transmitter Battey

    I have gone through the manual and SB for a couple days now and cannot find anything. How can I check the transmitter battery level without taking the transmitter apart. I am leaving for Cancun in a few days and want to make sure everything checks out. Thanks.

    How Often Do You Upgrade

    Just curious how often people upgrade dive computers. Do you keep them through their warranty period...until firmware/support is no longer available. I've been using the same computer for quite a while. It works. It does what I want it to do. But for me, it's probably time. Just curious...

    Kudos on your Customer Service...Thank You

    Many thanks to SeaLife. I have a DC800 with twin strobes. One strobe went bad a couple years ago, and SeaLife replaced it. The other one died last month, and they replaced that as well....both at no cost. THAT is GREAT customer service. Thank you very much.

    Dry Suits and Blisters

    I have been diving dry for 5 yrs or so...4 in the same dry suit and undergarment. Up until my last 2 dives, everything has been good. Recently, I have been getting blisters on my shins, calves and ankles. Some are small. The largest is about the size of a quarter and sticks out a good 1/4"...

    Snorkel for DM Testing

    I started my DM stamina tests the other day. So far so good. Did the tired diver tow on snorkel. Even though I scored a 4, the last 30ft was a killer. Could not get enough air through the snorkel. That led to taking shorter faster breaths which caused more issues...not clearing the CO2...
