Now THAT is cool!

Can a bluetooth signal travel through water?

I think that wikipedia chart is a crock ;-)

It doesn't, but it has has bluetooth. So it wouldn't be that difficult for some company to come up with a depth/air pressure sensor that could feed it data wirelessly. Not sure how well bluetooth works under water though ...

Anyone else notice that the new Pebble Smartwatch is rated down to 165 ft.? Any way we can get some dive tables and/or depth monitoring on it? At only $150, this could be a nice affordable little back up computer.

I did not post that dumb discrimination question attributed to me above by fnfalman. It is a ridiculous question ...

Interesting responses to my original post ... 1. It seems like the popular response to my first question is: no, the dive boat captain should not be held legally liable. 2. Conversely, the general consensus regarding my second question is: no, if it was my boat, I would not let a diver with...

A diver drowned on Friday diving the Channel Islands. It was only his 14th dive and he was diving solo from a regular dive boat. Without getting into the discussion of the dangers/merits of solo diving, I have two questions for the forum: 1. Should the diving boat be held legally liable...

I have approx 200 open circuit and 100 closed circuit dives with my VR3. By far, the absolute best computer that I have ever used ... period! And, the thing is a tank. I just upgraded mine to the color version. Not as difficult to use as people say although using it for CC (rebreather)...

Hi ... I am going to Rarotonga next week. Has anyone been there and does anyone have any suggestions? As an instructor, I definitely do not want to be with some "control freak" operation. I am thinking of going with Dive Rarotonga as they seem to have the best rep. Thanks :)

Thanks for the responses guys. It looks like no bay diving for me :-( The problem is, I live bay front and the water is just calling me. I was really hoping that there would be a few wrecks to dive, even if the water is a tad murky.

Too much photoshop.

... I just moved to the island of Alameda in the East Bay from Newport Beach. I was curious as to whether anyone dives in the Bay itself, or just out in the ocean. If there is diving in the Bay itself, are there any wrecks or good spots that I should know about? Also, is it generally pretty...

My first light was the UK HID Light Canon. I had nothing but problems with it, and the replacement that they sent me was a piece of crap as well. I have used the OMS Phantom HID 21W for a dozen or so night dives and find it to be more than adequate at significant depth and in wrecks. It...

Great shot ... I love those close ups.

Whale Skull Identified - It is the skull of a baby Minke whale and has found a new home in a local natural history museum. Thanks :-)

This whale skull washed up on the beach in front of my house today. I live next to the Channel Islands Harbor in California. It is approximately 5 feet long and weighs 100+ pounds. The whale was approximately 15 - 20 feet long (a baby I believe), had striations under its jaw, and a very small...

No idea how old the wreck is, but it is wooden and has a wooden spine. I presume it is over 100 years. However, the cloth was completely burried and not exposed to the open ocean. It is about 5 feet by 4 feet.
