There is a TTL option mentioned. I hope it’ll work well with an Olympus TG-7 in TTL. I guess Cannon TTL is different: “Smart Control TTL Flash Power for Sony, Olympus, & OM System Cameras” 🤔

No one “demanded” anything …. Wow 🤯

Wow! Such a mature response. The point of my OP is that like much community/forum software, the excessive ads, being part of the page designs, bloats the intent of the community, slows down page loads, and remains very outdated.

During the summer, Florida Thunderstorm, months - anything less than 2.5/3 hours is risky in MIa. The airport closes all baggage handling during thunder/lightning storms .. no planes loaded or unloaded until the storms are xx miles away. Also for note, AA will have five flights to the island...

Personally I think the web interface is bloated with far too many advertisements, not just Scubaboard but also other community/user forums using this or similar software…. You are right that TapTalk has problems as well…

Interesting. This appears to be a link to the xenForo app which may no longer be available. xenForo is the board (forum) platform Scubaforum and many other communities run on. I’m guessing this is an old link - anyone using this “app” for this community?

I suspect the issue is advertising revenue. Supporting Tapatalk or other forum integrators probably hits into the web advertising which is pretty extensive on the page. It may be they are part of the occasional slowdowns, issues, and general frustration many online forums are faced with.

Ok folks, while the sky is not falling, the effects of SCTLD are horrendous. We have lived on the island for the last 6+ years and have watched the effects since the disease first was reported. The corals killed will never recover and will, over time, cover with algae. Bleaching is a...

Thanks for the reply … why I forgot to mention is that I know the Terics very well. Both my DPFL and I are on our fifth ones due to various issues since launch but always well taken care of from Shearwarer support. The lack of a floating compass on the main dive screen is unfortunate and may...

I wanted to get some input from members who have used Terics from their launch and who have recently used, tried, or just played with the Mk3s as a dive watch. Not land sport extensive but some walking and maybe health features would be “nice”. I’m more interested in your experiences with...

Having had five Terics since they were first released, I just had my first transmitter failure. NOT flooded and not a battery issue. It died about 20-30 minutes into a dive. Fortunately it was shallow and my DPFL was with me so zero worries. Will stop and get a new one today… got about...

Sorry that I just saw your message. The only thing I can do is to recalibrate the compass. It seems I need to do this every couple of weeks. Even though Shearwater replaced it several times, it still happened intermittently. Fortunately our reefs here are easy to navigate but I still like...

Folks .. I am not saying to change or remove the design of the website. Many users subscribe to many forums and using a central tool/app such as TapTalk make watching, participatin, posting much easier. If it’s not for you - clearly stick with the web GUI.

For that - all we need to do is to fill the rinse sink before we head out for dives. A few hours under the sun and the water is bath water temp.

I did think about mounting a pony at the rinse tank. It’s interesting that you are the first to mention it always being better to rinse a pressurized Reg. Hmmmmm 🤔

Rinse tanks are our own, at our home, and filled fresh each diving day. I agree that by the EoD, many dive shop rinse tanks are pretty bad.

Regarding the second stage rinsing, which seems to be our issue. In the past we rinsed in the rinse tank, being sure to slosh them about. Our local Atomic dealer (who services them) indicated that with these regs, keeping them on an air supply and rinsing them while under pressure was better...

The problem area for me seem to be the second stages (primary and octo). Even though I clean them, after (nearly) every day of diving - very occasionally day #2, over time the salt build up becomes a problem so something is not getting a good flag/rinse. The (sealed) first stage still seems...

So I am thinking of replacing my Atomic B2 and undecided. While I do love the B2. It also requires more cleaning/maintenance than maybe others (even though that’s not their marketing message). Internal Secone stage components do seems to like me. That said, I’m not ruling out a new Atomic but...

Thanks - Same day surface times on island for us and company are usually 45-60MINS for most shore dives. We always do safety "stops" as we head inshore to our entry spot - as there is a lot to see in the 20-10ft depths in the rubble and blade corals. . . we just want to get our Terics and our...
