Cost for regulator service

Hello,

I have two sets of Hog D1 1st stage + Zenith 2nd + Classic 2nd. Very low use (20 dives), great shape, very clean, always rinsed, just been sitting for a year or so. I just got a bill for service that was pretty surprising. What should I be paying for service?

Thanks,
John

Re: Drysuit weighting

Make sure the valves are attaché TIGHT or they will leak. 30lbs seems heavy to me for that gear and your size. My roommate is exact same and dives about 26-28lbs

Re: Recomendations for Dry Gloves

I love my kubi's. Second choice would be the Viking bayonet (made by sitech) as it's the most low clearance plastic ring system I've seen. Third is the sitech glove lock qcp. Works flawlessly but the rings are rather big.

Re: 9/27 Alki Cove 2

Thanks guys. Yeah, more dives would be nice, I'm only getting about 2 a month and the other 3 (soon to be 4!) divers in the house are getting substantially less, despite having basically a dive shop in the garage. Ali and I have been on opposite shifts which makes it hard. Btw, she did a huge face p...

9/27 Alki Cove 2

I'm just going to write this up the way I saw it. I dunno if anybody reads these without pictures. Consider it a blog post. This is about dive 25 for me, FWIW. This is Ali and my first trip to Cove 2, and Ali's first dive since January (She says March, but I have the logs in my computer :nutty: ) We...

Re: New diver looking for gear recommendations

One nice thing with the fusions is that the inner bags are similar sizes. If you find a large/xl and need a small/med skin let me know. I have several spares. Look to spend $500-750 used plus another 150 for an undergarment

Re: New Diver

I agree with the advice above. Don't waste money on a wetsuit if you plan to dive around here -- look for a good used drysuit if money is tight. You can find good stuff around $500 if you're patient. Also, rent until you can afford to buy the right stuff, and rent/borrow until you know what the righ...

Re: Dive gear

Sorry to hear, glad you're holding on to Rec gear. W.r.t. tech, I ask myself if the juice is worth the squeeze.

Computers, HP tanks, wings are interesting for me.

Re: In Memoriam: Lynne Flaherty (LCF, TSandM)

Oh man... Lynne's advice was always right on, and she didn't have a big ego about it. I never met her in person but I've read hundreds of her posts between here and scubaboard. What a loss for the community. What a loss for Peter.
