Hi -
A few months ago a bought a brand new Rec XT. I have 12 dives on it now. The first 8 were <60fsw. Everything seemed great. This past weekend I did 4 deeper dives (>100fsw). When we were done our last dive of the weekend, we needed to pack up quickly as we had a 3 hour drive to our hotel and it was a long drive. I quickly threw all of my gear in my bag and planned to wash it off dry it out at the hotel.
When I was unpacking at the hotel I noticed that the wing seemed to be heavier than expected. After closer inspection I found that there was water inside the bladder. I took the wing over to the bathtub, turned it upside down hit the exhaust button and water poured out. It didn't drip, there was at least a few cups of water. I don't recall this happening on any of the other dives, but I could be wrong. Maybe it's been building up over each dive.
Is this normal or do I have a problem?
Thanks,
~Jerry
