G'day, What is the right protocol for keeping the 1850 mAh Li-ion battery in the Nautilus Lifeline in good working condition? Should it be charged before use? Should it be stored only after being fully charged? Will not using the unit for 6 to 12 months result in battery issues? With some...

A mate is having problems with his Nautilus Lifeline. Software is up-to-date. Hardware: 1.00. Fully charged. Turn it on and it crackles from time to time. Maybe a bad squelch setting. It searches for the GPS coords and seems to get them. But it only displays the Latitude, not Longitude. Any...

G'day, I'm in Victoria, Australia and I have a second-hand 15CFM Ingersoll Rand HP Compressor powered by a 10 HP 7.5 KW 3-phase electric motor I'm currently trying to get running. Well we've had it turning over okay (and even in the right direction) but we still have a few issues to work...

G'day, When the temperature is in the 35 to 45 deg C (95 to 115 deg F) range here on busy summer days the dive shop compressors work very hard. The result is very hot air through the whole system. Even though diver's cylinders are filled to a safe high pressure, later they cool down...

G'day, The Operations Manual has references to page numbers in the contents and throughout the manual. But the document doesn't have page numbers. I suggest you add page numbers. Less important is a styling tip. The document uses underline for a lot of text. I suggest you use some other...

G'day, After a few have seen or heard of the results I got using my GoPro HD Hero2 at Bikini Atoll, they've been asking me about what GoPro they should buy? Obviously, a lot of people want one from Santa for Xmas. I've put my thoughts online. See Lloyd Borrett - Interests - Scuba Diving -...

G'day, Back in March 2011, I purchased a second hand dive boat. I spent the next 9 months getting it setup to my liking before doing some diving from it over the summer. Then I went into house selling and buying and moving mode this year. Now that summer is approaching I'm looking to get back...

G'day, Some members of a dive club I'm a member of, like me, already have Nautilus Lifelines and more are planning to get them. However, being safety consious, the dive club is also getting five Nautilus Lifelines to share between club boats and club divers on our club dive days. We typically...

G'day, I dive solo on a regular basis, though on recreational dives rather than technical dives. Although I've never asked to dive solo while on a dive trip or liveaboard, this option has been given to me from time to time, and I've used it. (Every time I was using my technical rig with...

G'day, I've just taken delivery of a Suunto Vytec DS dive computer with Transmitter, Dive Manager software and USB interface. I haven't installed and looked at the Suunto Dive Manager software as yet. But I'm wondering if it will be a suitable solution for me anyway. Ideally I'd like to...

G'day, I took up scuba diving in February and have almost finished my advanced open water course, with just over 20 dives done. So basically, I'm a newbie, very much still finding my way in the underwater world. When I started I thought about underwater photography, but have been more...
