    Zeagle?

    Although I switched to closed circuit rebreather diving, my trusty Zeagle Ranger BC that is now almost 20 years old is still holding up perfect....even the inner urethane bladder is in perfect shape.... I like the weight pouches and single red handle tab to release both weight pockets.....

    Inspiration Reliability

    I am told that the electrical wires pass down through the rubber hoses into the handsets on the Classic. If you leave them hanging downards like I did when not in use, moisture can slowly travel down the hollow rubber hoses and get into the handsets. Seems like a bad design.....cost me $300...

    Inspiration Reliability

    Had mine 3 years, never had a cell warning, only replaced batteries......after 3 years, had battery box terminal corrision recitifed and water likes to eventually run down the inner handset hose and get into the controllers corroding the microswitch. All is now solved with the Vision...

    Inspiration vs. Evolution

    Depends on what you are going to use it for. I have an Inspiration with Vision electronics......I like the additional size of the dil cylinder for deeper stuff....wouldn't want to bailout on a 13cf pony and onboard 2 liter dil cylinder.......The Evolution for 100-150 foot stuff might be ok on...

    O2 Cell wiring on Inspiration

    Half full 02 cylinders seem to last for 3 long dives anyway......some of those cays look pretty secluded, but I guess you wouldn't have staff, food, and other diving guests......that's half the fun....lol

    O2 Cell wiring on Inspiration

    Andy, Sounds like you guys might have Inspiration dil and 02 cylinders for traveling YBOD divers? I have always wanted to go to Utila.....just need to find a traditional bungalow type accomodation on a private area that is semi-remote......I stayed at exclusive Turtle Island in Fiji...

    O2 Cell wiring on Inspiration

    Well, if I were to do a repair on my unit when I had Classic electronics, I would take a look at the existing wire, and if it were too short to repair, then I would obtain a similar gauge wire with a similar strand pattern, then make a soldered connection splice with a heat shrink tube over it...

    Best Rebreather

    I was 3 year younger than you when I wanted a Beckman Electrolung, the first closed circuit computer controlled rebreather. It took me another 30 years before my dream became a reality. The thirty year wait part really sucked, but it is an example of never giving up on your dreams. When you...

    Manado - Minahasa Resort

    It is the little critters that interests me, not really into Mr Big. But I just don't want to dive in crappy, trash laden waters.......I get a huge kick out of macro stuff, but would prefer it to be on a coral reef rather then sitting on trash.

    Manado - Minahasa Resort

    Jen, Did you dive the Lembeh Straights? I hear the visibility is lame, there is not much corals/growth of stuff, lots of trash in the water and generally lame, but with an astounding variety of critters. Some people have said they froze their butts of in 70 degree waters, others have said...

    I am real happy with my Inspiration. I have the Vision electronics on their way with trimix enabled /controller/computer, HUD and scrubber monitor. My unit has been extremly stable and reliable.....you do need the store the handsets upright so moisture does not travel down the hoses and get...

    Anyone selling tanks?

    I have a pair of aluminum 80's that have been laying around for quite some time.......they are attached to a double manifold which I could sell separate. Tanks themselves would be $50 each.
