    New Pentax K7 DSLR

    Thanks Jean, I was referring to camera housings without controls fitted and the through bulkhead buttons and levers etc as parts so I could fit my own controls. I understand there would be no Ikelite warranty but is there anyway to buy a complete housing without controls and fit my own to...

    New Pentax K7 DSLR

    Ikelite are a great company and I would use them if I could! I have three Ike 35mm housings and assorted ports and strobes. Unfortunately they have ceased making custom housings (you used to send them your camera and they would fit it to a housing, a fantastic service!) and will no longer...

    Advice re reliable worldwide shipping from US?

    I won a Scubapro Pilot from an ebayer called berkshirediving. He has flat refused to send the reg, despite as having listed it Worldwide postage, and has now opened an unpaid item case against me. (I paid via Paypal inc shipping) He tells me he has been selling on Ebay for 10 years yet his...

    Advice re reliable worldwide shipping from US?

    This did cross my mind. The sale price was not cheap, though I am not really sure what the reg is worth. Perhaps someone offered more or he was unhappy with the sale price.

    Advice re reliable worldwide shipping from US?

    This one is for those with experience buying and selling gear involving shipping from the US to international. I have bought a reg from Ebay, listed as worldwide shipping via USPS. I paid as soon as the ebay request payment email arrived, including international postage. The seller has since...

    Left handed R109?

    Anybody got one of these? I have a lovely matched pair, though not sure how I'll ever use the left handed one. Might be good for side-mounts or independent doubles. How rare are they?

    new aqua-lung mistral

    The new Mistral has always felt like an unfinished prototype to me. Second stage bolted onto a Titan, connected to the Titan first stage by an improvised hose arrangement. Re-breather hoses too wide in diameter for comfort and an over bulky mouthpiece. A good idea but unfinished and wasn't...

    Twin hose can clamps!

    Thanks Double Diver, My excellent dive tech found me a vintage brass/chrome clamp, works great! Still need more if you get a run made:) My MB Mk3 is still in the post, glad to hear of good experiences. I expect similar performance to my well set up Pheonix, how do they compare in the water?

    Submarine Products Super Sealion

    Hi there, Anyone have any experience restoring and diving a Submarine Products Super Sealion? I've found one, no label, lightly scratched chrome, hoses perished, internal condition unknown. What would the value be, and difficulty of getting to diving condition? Thanks!

    Twin hose can clamps!

    Is it possible to chrome plate stainless steel? Mild steel seems a bad idea for anything that gets immersed in salt water, even if it is chromed. As I wasn't the original customer I don't think Bryan would replace it, besides a replacement that would rust on a saltwater reg is no use to me.

    Twin hose can clamps!

    Thanks for the link but my previous clamp was a repro from VDH, it rusted out. Bryan says they are chrome plated steel and are not guaranteed against rust. The review on his page was from an early batch that were stainless, not the current run. I need chrome plated brass or stainless.

    Twin hose can clamps!

    Hi all, Does anyone know of a source of non ferrous can clamps to suit a DA Aquamaster? Old or repro ok. I dive with my DAAM and PRAM on a weekly basis and am building a MBRAM (MB Mk3) Having a clamp rather than clips has allowed me to fix a freeflow and save a dive in the past and I...

    Bonica G8V15 video light?

    Hello, I am using two of these lights, for the money they seem very good. Better suited to macro as they only have a 60 degree spread...in fact being dimmable they are GREAT for macro. They seem less bright than my L&M Sunray HID's that are rated at 1000 lumens but still very bright. They do...
