This is my best solution. Using this method there is a simple threading scheme and a simple tensioning system. I rotated the capsule so the lubber line is not square to my wrist so I can sight a course without needing my arm to be parallel to my face. Create three loops with the thinner bungee...

Another thing. Because holding your forearm parallel to your eyes is difficult, why not design the compass with sighting window at a comfortable angle. I will move the lubber line on mine clockwise to the left side of the sighting window. The Suunto clipper has the direction of travel...

(Warning - RANT about to start!!!!) I just changed from a cheap compass with regular strap to this bungee system and what a mistake that was! This is possibly the lamest solution and worst design from a respectable manufacturer I have seen in a while. Firstly, the supplied bungee is as this...

I received the canister from Dive Imports Australia and and it looks identical to this one that is 40m rated Best Divers 40m Waterproof Dry Canister - Small - The Scuba Doctor Dive Shop I had to trim off a millimetre from the aerial pull tab and maybe a shaving off one corner but it easily...

PLB1 is rated for 15m but for how long I don’t know.

I will keep the forum posted. It is a cheap experiment. I have the smaller one. They are available in several sizes and probably come from different manufacturers. I have used the small one for keys without any leaks. I believe that a dive store here had the manufacturer test them and they...

I am going to try this cheap canister. The nominal internal diameter is almost exactly the same as the widest part of the PLB1 so it may fit and I might get lucky. I think it will be OK for recreational diving and if the seal leaks a little, the PLB1 is waterproof. If it completely floods -...

What canister do you refer to please?

Yep, that could be best!

I don’t even know if I can comment on such an old post but here goes anyway. I just watched Alec Pierce’s video on regulator storage and purge valve depression. Just thought I would show my 2 min solution - about as basic as it gets. I suppose there is a risk that the purge valve button might...

Thanks for the info. I was leaning towards the Favor just because the online manuals looks more modern but I suppose that could have been a red herring. I would only be using for coastal dives, and probably not too many as I am just getting back into it (I used dive tables last time!) Luckily...

That is about the money. Want to know which would be the better choice if they were in similar condition.

Hi What vintage are these computers and which would be the better buy? I cannot work it out from the manual available on line. I will probably use one as a backup. I don’t need a nitrox capable unit at the moment. Thanks
