With the added bonus of my system being completely free (save the reusable weight pockets and $10 grommet kit), modular, and open-sourced. :rofl3: You can fill all 3 rows of holes and you'd get the equivalent to that system, but you don't need to do that if weighted properly.

1) It sits even lower than on the cam band, thus more leverage for maximum trimming effect with the smallest weight. 2) The weights sit flat on the backplate while in trim and stable, compared to on the band which is higher and induces rotation and instability. 3) I don't like things, esp...

Yes, it depends on how you attach your two Halcyon cam bands to your backplate also, either through the vertical slits (minimalist travel style) or using single tank adapters (like I do). I like using these separate ones because it's more modular and I can easily detach the cam bands and pack...

I don't know where the third cam band is on your rig, as I don't know the BCD type or backplate and wing configuration of your rig. I dive on Halcyon aluminum and CF backplates and the bolt I use to attach these pouches are indeed the lowest possible. When you dive in a DIR horizontal position...

For those rare instances when I dive single tank in cold Monterey water and having to attach tail weights to trim my rig out, I found this solution works very well for me. I can't say this is the standard followed by the rest of BAUE, but I hope it would. :p I didn't like having to cam on the...

Additional photos. Notice you don't need the to do the lower nut/bolt. Only one nut/bolt set at the top is sufficient to hold the two halves of the weight together. I used a bolt and store a backup wing nut here in case I lose one of my delrin backplate nuts for some reason.

In BAUE, some of us use the following tail weights to trim out our tanks. I dive on double Faber LP-85 steel tanks with Thermos DIN-only manifold and Highland double bands. These tail weights help me trim my tanks out perfectly and I can add/subtract tail weights as needed. Parts: 1) Weight...

If you add a very thin washer like I did (look at the above picture) and/or use Loctite blue threadlocker, it won't come lose at all. Even if it does, you can easily tighten by hand.

Update: Thread size of the screw is 6-32, for those who are curious.

I got this to test out on my AL-6 drysuit inflation bottle for $85 originally. I got just 20 or so dives on it but didn't like it as much as I hoped because of the tank's position on my rig. The threads still look clean and new so no servicing needed. I heard it works very well for the...

I got these as backup lights on my backplate and harness rig, so they barely got any use at all. They work very well, are super bright at 720 lumens each with a very penetrating *narrow* beam, have a durable stainless steel case rated for 300 m (1,000 ft), and run over 2.5 hrs on high mode each...

Turns out keeping the screen protector on with cave line tightened down is even better than these dumb O-rings that failed on my recent trip. Gonna keep this solution from now on. Though I use my Apple MagSafe Qi-compatible charger instead.

Dibs :p

Today is your lucky day @Spyderdiver !

Got one from eBay for cheap. Thanks!

Hi @Shearwater / @lynnpartridge , I love my Shearwater Teric a lot since I got it and look forward to many dives with it in the upcoming years. I love the bright display and bezel compass and just the very awesome layout of everything. I usually dive in either OC Tech mode or Gauge mode, with...
