They exchanged and ate the shipping. But that tanks first use was a loaner, and yeah, the person that borrowed...

Re: Faber tanks?

I have heard that the valves they come with are not the best but only heard that from one source and wanted to see if anyone else heard that.

Thanks for the info.

Just placed my order for one :)

The 3180+ tanks are ghastly heavy but can be good for singles as you barely need a weight belt.

its the 3442psi tank.

Re: Tanks for sale

I'm interested in seeing the hp 100. I have yoke regs but should be easy to convert.

That's if desert diver does bite first :)

Dive light

Looking for a good dive light.

Would like to keep the price below $200, have it be LED, and at least 1000LM.

Anyone got any ideas or preferences?

Thanks

Not sure of your size or budget but there's a Whites Fusion Tech Hybrid drysuit L/XL on scubaboard.com that is new, they are asking $870 but looks like they will consider an offer. I have a similar suit with the Fusion undergarment, REALLY like it. I've gotta get out and try some stuff... And I am ...

Re: New diver looking for gear recommendations

Contact Norris if you're interested in a good starter drysuit. He's been storing my original USIA suit for a while. It may need a seal or two replaced, but it's in good enough shape to get you diving dry right away. If it fits and you like it, I'll sell it to you cheap cheap cheap. Will do sir than...

Re: New diver looking for gear recommendations

What type of dry suits does everyone recommend?

How is buying gear on the internet? Anyone have a good online site they use or recommend staying away from?
