Hi All, I seem to have some bad luck or I'm making bad choices with dive torches, the last one (albeit from eBay) was a Scubapro item. I took it diving yesterday and it ended up flooded both internally and in the light space. Totally ruined and the battery combined with salt water was...

Hi Everyone, I am in the middle deciding on my next dive computer. I want to upgrade and like the look of the Galileo series. I wont buy new as some good prices can be found on e-bay for hardly used versions. My question is apart from the heart monitor, is the SOL that much better than the...
