I'm hanging up my old Seaquest BCD and getting a Zeagle. I'm torn between the Ranger and the Ranger LTD. I've seen the Ranger in person and tried it on and it fits great. I'm guessing the ranger LTD would fit pretty much the same although it is a little bit heavier. I like that the LTD has a dump valve on the right shoulder and comes with Zeagles zip mount built in. If I get the regular Ranger I'd be adding the Zip Mount. The LTD also comes with Zeagles yellow weight pouches which I'd be adding to the Ranger if I went that way. My concern mainly is the fit, the LTD looks like it has a little different harness/buckle set up. Also I like that the add on Zip Mount for the ranger looks like it sits closer to the inside of the bladder, and from what I can tell the Zip Mount is built into the LTD but towards the outside of the bladder.
I was recently certified as a Divemaster, I'm not sure if I want to continue into instructor level certifications but I do really want to get into tech and extended range diving, but it looks like both BCDs would serve that purpose.
I was thinking about ordering it from Zeagle with red panels rather than the regular black, but I was kinda worried that they would fade in a couple years and start to look more pink, anyone have any experience with Zeagles color panels long term?
Thanks for the input!
