    For Sale MK25 1st and 2nd, Suunto Compass, etc.

    Hey all, With Law School coming up, I've decided that I have to give up a hobby to finance my education. Unfortunately, I have to sell all of my scuba equipment. Here's what I have for now (list will update and pictures will be added). At the moment, I am accepting offers, assuming they are...

    Sending PADI certification forms late?

    I sent my PADI basic diver certification forms about 1 1/2 years ago. To my surprise, they were delivered back to me via USPS, since the "postage was not paid." Interestingly enough, I OVERPAID for postage (placed 2 stamps instead of the required 1). It has been about 2 years since I...

    How long does it take to service a reg set?

    Mine has been sitting in the shop for about 2.5 weeks now. I asked her to do a complete service on the 1st, 2nd, and octo. It took her about 1.5 months just to check one of my 2nd stages..and the only thing that was done was a cleaning.

    Dive alert plus on i3 System

    I have been considering the dive alert system since they are on sale at my lds, but can not part with my i3 bcd. Is there want way to use the dive alert on an i3 equipped bcd? Would it be possible to connect a lp hose to a reg and use the dive alert separately? I would assume that air would leak...

    Service Cost, what should I expect?

    I just dropped off my MK25, G250HP and G250HP Octo to have a full service done. I've never had a reg serviced prior to this so I'm quite anxious as to how much it may cost. Dropping $3500 for my bike's downpayment was bad enough. I know it varies from LDS to LDS, but what should I expect to pay?

    Do Valve brands make a difference?

    My LDS has a few for sale, I didn't have time to ask what the difference is but I know all of them have a convertible insert (yoke to din, din to yoke). The only difference is the brand. I believe she carries Storm, Thermo, and Genesis valves. Storm is the cheapest, then Genesis, and finally the...

    Yoke to Din, do you need a specific valve?

    I have your basic Catalina AL80 3000PSI tank with a yoke valve. I had intended on switching over to Din and simply switching out the valves. This was until I called my local Sports Chalet who informed me that certain tanks need certain valves. If this is the case, what kind of Din valve do I...

    G250HP Questions

    My Titan has free flowed on the last 2 dives I've done. It's sitting in the shop right now, but I've decided to purchase an MK25 to use as my primary first stage (along with my B2 second stage). I found a few that I'm interested in. One would come with a G250HP + octo for just under $300. I'm...

    Looking for an MK25 (with or without 2nd stage)

    I received one free with a large purchase from my LDS. Used it once, then sold it...now I would like to repurchase one since my current first stage has failed me twice already. Yoke only. Mainly interested in something that has recently been serviced/still in service. I'll also consider an...

    Price check on lane 4 please!

    I just picked up a reg set as part of a promotion. In a previous thread I was given some estimates as to how much I could sell it for, but would like to get some more input. Here is what I have, how much can I get for it? MK25 + S550 (Both were serviced 10 months ago), Suunto SPG, depth, and...

    Coldest it gets in Southern California (underwater)

    Being a new diver (15- dives) I have only had the opportunity to dive in a few places over the last 3 months. So far I have dived in Catalina, shore dive at Laguna, and shore dive at Newport. The deepest I've gone so far was around 100 ft, where it began getting rather cold even in a 7 mil and...

    Apeks AT20 or SB S550

    My LDS is having a promotion and is trying to get rid of a few rental/used regs. Basically, for every new reg ($500 or more) purchased, they will throw in a free used reg to use as a secondary. Two caught my attention, the Apeks AT20 and the SB S550. Which would you take, considering that price...

    Suunto computers and sensor

    Either I am very unlucky, or Suunto has an issue with the sensors on their computers. I've gone through 2 computers in the past month and both began self-diving after 1 good dive (a Vyper and a Gekko) Is this common in computers? I posted a thread a week ago asking about computer recommendations...

    Why are Henderson wetsuits inexpensive?

    I noticed a gap in pricing between Henderson's basic 7 mil wetsuit, and other 7 mils. Henderson has their basic wetsuit priced at around $150 new. However, other companies sell their wetsuits for $300 +. Does henderson's pricing reflect their quality? I'm planning on picking up one of their...

    Computer recommendation?

    I purchased a used reg set some time ago, unfortunately it came with a broken Gekko. Unless my last dive was down to 250 feet, I believe it's time to invest in a new computer. I don't want to spend an arm and a leg, and don't need all the crazy features. Just looking for something that won't...

    Best looking wetsuit? Your thoughts..

    My buddy and I went on a couple boat dives yesterday. Half way through the trip we had an issue on the boat which delayed our trip by an hour. Needless to say, pointless conversations were exchanged. A couple on the boat was talking about how attractive their wetsuits were. I thought it was a...

    Henderson Aquasilk?

    Has anyone tried this specific wetsuit out? There are a few going around for $200 shipped, brand new for a 7mm version. I'm highly considering one since I'm tired of driving back and forth to rent/return my wetsuit
