    Shearwater cloud computer update current version recognition

    Recently after a dive I was uploading my dives to the cloud and after I noticed that It offered me to update my computer. I didn't remember the version number my computer was on but assumed that it wouldn't have offered me an update if it wasn't newer than the one I'm currently on, so I did the...

    Info Care to share what you have your Shearwater displaying?

    I'm not a Tech diver, so I left my perdix in the OC rec mode and customized the display to show what I was interested in seeing. However, I recently switched it over to Tec mode and just love the flexibility it gives for the info you want to see better displayed without the use of 'mini'...

    Best suggestions for hands free video while diving.

    As the title says, I'm looking for suggestions for hands free video while diving. I see Paralenz is bankrupt, so that would rule them out I guess. Thanks.

    Apeks Freeflow Control Device

    What are your thoughts on having this installed on pony/bailout/auxiliary tanks? Freeflow Control Device I pressurize my pony hose prior to hitting the water. Double check just before I descend and usually have to re-pressurize it back. I conduct the dive with the bottle off, but keeping...

    For those that have a 19cf, how do you travel with it?

    In the near future I will be traveling with my 19cf for the 1st time. My plan is to carry on-board in a Akona Globetrotter all of my gear except cutting instruments, save the dive kit and the 19cf. However a post from another poster (actually 2) revealed that they carry on their 19cf, but not...

    Ever seen a computer malfunction in this way?

    Recently I began to suspect my Nemo Wide (1st gen) of giving me incorrect NDL on the conservative side. I have been more frequently diving with more experienced divers, so our bottom time are not limited by running low on air. That's when I started noticing that especially on the 2nd dive I have...

    Mares Genius vs Perdix AI for rec dives (within NDL) only

    Hi All, I'm interested in updating my computer to one of these 2 (my current is a Mares Nemo Wide). I am only interested in recreational diving within NDL and I am not technically trained and have no plans to be. I have downloaded both manuals and skimmed through, but I find the Perdex very...

I’ve realised that I need to practice deploying underwater, but my diving circumstances has not allowed me to do so as yet. Yesterday it caught up to me and I had to. My dive guide inflated his (I think 4ft) at...

    Bungee 2nd stage necklace, adds difficulty to doff in water and hand gear off to boat?

    Hi. I'm thinking about going this route, but for pretty much all of my diving I have to take my kit off in the water and someone lifts it into the boat. This can offer a challenge if the water is choppy, which it often is. How much harder would it be with a bungee second stage?

    BP/W users, how do you prevent bellows pocket from falling off?

    As in the title, how do you prevent the pocket from sliding off the strap when you pull it? When I dive we have to take our kit off in the water and have it lifted into the boat. On my 1st dive immediately after I pulled the waist strap and took off the BP I thought, oh shoot... the pocket...
