grf88 thanks. I am just tearing into my rix also. Any more of these handy tips not in the manual?

I am also looking for that manual. Could someone email it to me. Thanks Dan

New guy here, Tales of the abyss, been reading through that lately. That’s some neat stuff. I am 62, have a few double hosers and love diving vintage and free. May want to get in to photography, we’ll see. Currently tinkering with some old scubapro regs.
