OK, I'm a late adopter and just downloaded it for over CAD8. And it doesn't work properly. Also, can't get to their help site. [Edit] Nevermind, got it working. The actual application throws you out from setup mode. Setup must be done in the iPhone Settings part. This is kind of...

Me too .... Micro FT, waiting for full rMS. Does Paul read ScubaBoard.com?

BabyDuck, love your Avatar. Hope not too many DIR'ers see it....hahahaha

Hey JodiBB, It was unfortunate that you and your groups initial experience with diving was not favourable. But look on the bright sight, it can only get better from here. In Singapore, we do do a lot of our training in local waters where visability is about 0.5 - 1 metre; after that, we...

Well, there are many 2nd hand Dolphins around and the modify it to CCR with KISS parts is not difficult. This way, you can still dive SCR if you really wanted to. But, I too am looking to get a KISS. ;)

If 'lazy', use the Sunnto Cobra and download the log into their Dive software, it automatically calculates it for you.... But on a serious note, do your 'readings' under 3 circumstances: 1. At rest; 2. Moderate exercise (normal finning); and, 3. Heavy exertion (fin like crazy). To...

From the original post, PDDiver is a diver with disabilities; hence in this forum. A Silent Submersion, Gavin and even the Apollo is way to heavy and cumberson, especially in case of flooding. I use an Apollo AV-1 to 80 msw and find it heavy on land with all the gear; imagine a disabled diver...

For a small, light and 'cheap' DPV, you might want to look into the Sea-Doo. You can rig it like tech divers so that you don't have to hang on to it all the time....

Like in Financial sales, I can't recommend a specific brand for liability issues, but as an indication, for first stages I have 2 Mares, 2 ScubaPro MK25's, 4 Apex DST's, 1 cheapo Taiwan replica, and 1 Drager 'reducer' for my Dolphin. I like them all, but I only trust my ScubaPro's and Apex's...

Some pictures of my monster...Stefan, the pictures as promised....I'm making another 'inner' frame as there is not enough space and the backplate gets in the way of the bypass, and also the backplate tends to rock a little....the new mod should be ready sometime next week....but won't be able to...

Try Techme or Danshop, but they are based in Europe and the things there are not cheap. Another place to try is the unofficial Drager Rebreather forum, but I can't remember the URL off the top of my head. I've seen on some sites that people have actually made their own out of Aluminium...

50% - 300bar DIN Apex DST / AT50 O2 - 300bar DIN Apex DST / ATX50 I like using a swivel 1st stage because you can tuck the hose away nicely when not in use. When you need to use the gas, the hose can be swivelled into a comfortable position. I also use 40" hoses and loop the hose around my...

It is a little further, but Manado is great. If you want to splurge a little more, stay at the Lembeh Strait Resort (or is it Lembeh Resort, keep getting their names mixed up, they are 2 different resorts). It is mainly muck diving which is nice a shallow in that area. At that resort, there...

caveseeker7 and Camerone, thank's for the tips and pictures. From what I can see from the pictures posted by caveseeker7, the 50 cu ft bottle is a Luxfer which is about 19". My bottles are British Dive Team 7.0L bottles which are taller than by 30 cu ft Luxfers which are already nearly 22"...

Real dump question, please.....How do you mount your 50 cu ft bottles? A 50 cu ft is pretty big, so placing it where you would place the existing bottle holder at the bottom of the shell makes the tank protrude out the sides way too much. Placing it on the side of the shell (like the bail...

I have a few Rays and Dolphins for sale, but I guess you are a little too far away....I'm in the East, as in the Far East...

True, but with some coaxing and bribing (alcohol or what ever vice), usually the operators are quite amiable.... ;) Actually, there are places that traditionally didn't have doubles setup are starting to do so and some even bring in Helium, like the operator we use in Manado and Tioman...

For me, travel with a set of bands and a manifold. Not much weight and quite compact, and will fit with the rest of your 'normal' single-gear. If where you go only has singles, it is simply a matter of taking the single tank valves off and screwing in the manifold and bands. Just takes a...

We were all diving 3mm wetsuits, yes, we are in the tropics. For this trip, we were diving the HMS Repulse and Seven Skies Wreck which are situated on the East Coast of Western Malaysia. Bottom was 55m. This is what I call lazy Tech Diving. But on the other hand, this is the best way not...
