AP (in Europe at least) customer service are second to none, if your unit is just a year old I'm sure they'll help you out.

Why won't you answer my question @berndo ? Is it because you don't like the answer?

Tell me which OW class teaches you to analyze gases. I know GUE Rec1 does it, but which are the other ones at it is apparently "as basic as it gets".

What extra expenses? Gas? Travel? Housing? Yes, I am certain every other agency will happily calculate these for you and include it in the adjusted listed price.

Get another pelicase and throw some of the components into that one? Or is the 23kg limit combined for both of your checked bags?

You didn't though... The calculations were done in metric but the values displayed to the astronauts were in imperial, because apparently it's easier to train an american how to travel in a spacecraft to the moon than it is to teach them the metric system. In other words, the metric/imperial...

Maybe you should take a look at one then, maybe you wouldn't be telling people that decompression diving is recreational diving because it really isn't when you look at the added risks that come with it. And also, nice humble brag I guess? Not sure what anything after your first sentence had to...

Does the modern BSAC training manuals say the same thing?

That's your personal opinion though, and how things were done 40 years ago has little relevance today. General consensus is that dives requiring decompression is in technical territory no matter what you or others were taught half a lifetime ago.

People who are doing deep and long trimix dives will definitely not think "maybe I should get an apple watch as a backup computer, after all it will still work in gauge mode".

It would not be here unless you did it deliberately or if you were drunk or something like that. Your employer would probably rack up a bit of fines here if the victim was employed but it would be a laughable amount compared to the damage caused. Not saying I agree with how things work here but...

That one was a bit of a shocker I'll admit, and I've even lived in Malta for a couple of months. But you do realize that there are a whole bunch of countries in Europe and all of them have their own laws, no? I could literally run someone over with a forklift at work and while they absolutely...

I guess it's hard to imagine that not every place in the world is like yours. A divemaster guiding certified divers would have zero liability here whatsoever. The whole culture of liability and especially lawsuits doesn't really exist here, for better or worse.

I'm assuming the above will depend a lot on the location and local laws, no? A divemaster who is just guiding a dive for others would in no way be held accountable where I'm at but I'll bet that would be the case in the US. A dive guide would have no more liability than a random buddy, which is...

All good and valid points. However, OP is apparently diving a new unit which most of us assume he has done some sort of crossover for and all of that old thinking should have been rectified during that crossover. That doesn't seem to be the case though.

Blacktip. Cheap. Works. Seacraft. Not so cheap. Nearly twice the range. Faster. Lighter and smaller. Twice the depth rating. Works. Fixed it for you :wink: Jokes aside, I doubt this will steer many customers away from the Blacktip. It is a fair bit more expensive and that will probably make it...

Love my Apeks high profile, dumps like an absolute dream.

Probably. No. No, I'm definitely in the camp of "less is more" here. Also no. I've never met a revo diver because they don't really have a presence here, but from what I've seen on this board they seem to be a lot like poseidon folk. Their machine is the best in the world on all points...

Did you try telling your friend to just pick up some graveyard factory work to make ends meet instead? No you didn't, because you're not supposed to have to work several jobs to make ends meet. I'm not going to elaborate more on that because it will get removed and I may or may not get banned...

And I have no friends who have struggled whatsoever with their cells in the APs. If one sucks just chuck it and throw in a new one. If 5 cells are better than 3 then obviously 7 would be better than 5. How come your revo doesn't have 42 cells? More seems to be better, just to be safe you know...
