    Paralenz Vaquita Battery Issues

    Sorry to hear about your issue. Have you tried leaving your camera 'charging' for a longer period, such as a couple or few days? If you try doing that, be sure to leave the camera in a cool place as it generated some heat while charging. The technology built into this camera "eats up" lots of...

    Trip Report 2023 08/04-08/07 Flower Garden Banks Marine Sanctuary with MV Fling Trip Report

    Thanks for a very informative dive review, and very helpful to this diver who’s considering making this dive trip! Was that a Scopolamine patch you’re referring to? Haven’t heard of a “sycophant” patch. My concern is about ‘meds’ usage before diving. Evidently, this wasn’t a problem for you...

    Thanks for sharing your experience, Tigerpaw! We fellow divers can always learn from these situations, which helps our dive community as a whole. You've acted correctly, to enjoy future dives. Each of our dives ought to be another 'learning' experience. Since I have a couple different...

    New Apple Watch is a dive computer

    My wife presented me with an Apple Ultra watch recently. Have worn it on several dives with no issues whatsoever. I‘ve set the “action” button for the ”dive” function and depress it before submerging. I’ve cross-checked it with my Scubapro Galileo 2 computer and the Ultra watch maintains...

    Paralenz Vaquita 2

    Am guessing a ‘cased’ iPhone might fit better in a BCD pocket (if available) than the Vaquita. I’m going on a year with my Vaquita Gen 2, with no issues whatsoever (other than finding a good way to secure my rig without it dangling a foot off my BC). Enjoy using your cased iPhone ‘rig’!

    Paralenz Vaquita

    I’ve been using the handgrip assembly on a Vaquita Gen 2 and find the hand grip a significant improvement. I still have to use care in insuring the camera is not recording when I let go of the grip. Otherwise, it records really strange perspectives, lol. Mounting the handgrip to the camera...

    Paralenz Vaquita 2

    I purchased a Vaquita gen 2 last year, a couple weeks before the company "folded" (?). However, after numerous dives with it, I'm still quite impressed with it's performance. I always make sure it's got a full charge, especially if not used on a monthly basis (not the case most of the time...

    G2 and Importing Dives Issue

    Thanks Chris! I purchased a G2 computer four years ago and have experienced only “pain” downloading my dives to my Apple devices. I’m giving Mac Dive a try. Safe diving!

    Zoop Novo Battery Replacement

    My Zoop Novo computer battery finally is running "low" after nearly three years since it's last service. As much as I rely on my dive computers (I use my Zoop Novo as a 'backup' device), the expense and peace of mind having my local dive shop service it is worthwhile.

    Paralenz Vaquita

    This is an interesting topic. These cameras store an incredible amount of data, in addition to keeping time. If not using this camera at least twice monthly, I make a point of recharging the camera at least every three weeks or so, and definitely before I intend on using it. I've used Go-Pro...

    Paralenz Vaquita

    Sorry to hear this happened to another Vaquita user. Before taking the camera underwater, I checked the three O-rings in the back cap and lightly lubricated them with silicon grease before carefully reinstalling. Note that reinstalling these O-rings is somewhat difficult and care must be used...

    Paralenz Vaquita

    Just returned from diving Roatan and Cozumel. Took my Vaquita G2 on all the dives. Camera performed flawlessly! I also noted some slight moisture on the inside of the back cap after almost every dive I use the camera on. I'm diving in humid locations and believe the moisture is condensation...

    Review Scubapro G2 wrist computer ‘compass’ ops

    Sure. To clarify, on the ScubaPro Galileo 2 wrist computer, the compass display must be read with the display face oriented vertically (1st photo), i.e., “looking horizontally”. If attempting to determine compass direction “looking down” at the computer display (2nd photo) as when viewing a...

    Review Scubapro G2 wrist computer ‘compass’ ops

    Not sure this is the place to post this thread. Have been using a ScubaPro G2 wrist computer for about three years and finally figured out how the ‘compass’ display ‘works’ correctly. Before when I was trying to read the compass display with the device facing ‘up’ similar to how a conventional...

    Reset G2 to Sell?

    Hi Patrick. Did you try “Format Flash Disk”? That feature is available on ‘page’ 8.11 on your G2. I’ve not tried that yet, but found the procedure in the user manual.

    Dive Computer Software

    Hi Eric. Have you tried downloading the latest version of LogTrak? Until I did that, I had problems with it as well. For some unknown reason, occasionally I still have issues linking my G2 to my iPad Air 4. Not the case when linking to my iPhone, which works every time. Then just ‘cloud’...

    Dive Computer Software

    Have experienced similar issues with Subsurface and, until recently, LogTrak. After downloading the latest LogTrak s/w version, past ‘bugs’ seem to have been resolved. No problems downloading dive data from my G2 nor getting LogTrak to recognize my G2. However, getting Subsurface to...

    Does anyone ask to see your logbook?

    I dive with a Scubapro G2 computer. Tried the Scubapro app for loggoing dives, but it’s somewhat “cludgy” to Bluetooth (BT) connect to the G2. The Scubapro app also has somewhat less graphic detail than the Subsurface app, which I‘ve found easier to link up with via BT. Overall, I prefer...
