I don't own my own fill station, I just have a interest in doing my own inspections, maybe friends as well. I have 6 cylinders, 4 hp100's, 2 hp80's. I also have 3 reg sets. I guess its just my mentality of DIY and teaching, i teach pilots. If i had time and money I would probably get every cert...

I am a DIY type of person, I was wondering what the best online/course for becoming certified in tank inspections / doing VIPs myself that will be recognized and valid at LDS's for fills. Ideally have my own stickers made with a certificate # or something along those lines for verification. A...

good price, love my XT's

pics?

to clear things up im only using EANx up to 40% and the place i fill at banks nitrox, unless i request a special mix then they would partial blend, which i never really using anything higher than 34% - they mostly bank 32 I think the whole nitrox 02 clean thing is BS anyway, it only takes the...

awesome info. is there anyway around the ultrasonic cleanse? reason i ask is my tanks and valves had just gotten o2 cleaned and vip'd - however they are regular yoke valves, i want to just swap out the valves with the new din ones im buying after i burn through the nitrox in them, but i didnt...

I picked up some slightly used Thermo K valves (din style). I know there's not a whole lot to a valve and really o2 cleaning them really just means everything's in working order and not contaminated, also that the right lube is used. It cant be that hard to diy, i just cant find anything...

ok, so what about filling tank after tank in a reasonable amount of time? Or is it possible to do two at once? im really unsure of solid brands other than bauer, not sure at which models/brands to be looking at in the used market

I've been reading through some of the threads and lurking in here. Im interested in learning more about setting up a system thats capable of filling 1 to 2 tanks at a time up to 5000psi. I would be going between a SCBA 97cu ft 4500psi tank and then various AL80s, AL100 and Steel 80,100's...

most AL80's are really only useful for 20yrs regardless of what the manufacturer states, lots of shops wont dare touch one that old, even if it has passed hydro your probably better off keeping it but honestly i see Al80's all day long from $25-80 on CL, less educated buyers might jump on it

not to derail but where did you stay in Manuel Antonio? I just came back from Herradura/Jaco area - diving was sub par in herradura - we drove down to manuel antonio and went to the park for a few hours, looks like a nice area and cool little town

thats not to shabby as well i guess i still dont understand why they just didnt implement the feature into the new line of bc's - I like the look of the new power inflator just why not mold it so it has threads on one end?

ya im on the same boat, if it aint broke dont fix but i have to send it in anyway for some other repair. I figured i just get it serviced anyway but i dont want to drop $150 considering I was under the impression it was free servicing as long as i bought parts. I just cant seem to find anything...

thanks for that link, ill consider it

I bought my GF a Zeagle Grace, its a nice B.C at a very fair price point, however I have no idea why you took away the garden hose flush feature? Would it not be easy to implement this with the newer power inflator? After a trip to Costa Rica I was getting my self drenched cleaning her B.C, the...

I could have swore that DGX offered either free labor or free regulator servicing with the purchase of parts as long as you serviced the regs once a year? I thought that's what it said below the reg packages on the older site before it was revamped (about a year ago). Did that change or am i...

more reviews? I might be going next weekend

thank you, any idea on average costs for two tank dives? nitrox? anyone recommend some spearfishing charters?

Thinking of a diving trip to Cancun for spring break. What are the best places to dive and spearfish? what charters/dive shops should i be looking into? Is it safe to bring gear? Should i be cautious of fills? Any good shore diving?
