I got an email for a package on sale for the following items.

Aqualung Pro HD Compact BCD
Aqualung Helix Compact Pro Scuba Regulator (Yoke)
Aqualung Helix Compact Pro Scuba Octopus
Aqualung i330R 2 Gauge Console Dive Computer

1. Any thoughts of the component pieces?
2. Price for package is $1399? Looks like the package saves $500.

Not such a great deal. You're not saving much and you're getting a mediocre BCD, middle of the road reg and a really crappy computer. SCUBA.com will give you a discount on most of that if you call them direct. I personally do not like that computer. Deep 6 Excursion or Shearwater Peregrine is a much better buy.

Thanks for the input. We already have a Peregrine so the computer was redundant. Still relatively new to diving (25 dives) but figured if the price is right, we can get our own BCD, reg, and octo. All recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
