GoPro Hero 3 BE is a good way to start.
Anyway, any upcoming dive trip? |

QUOTE(ukiya @ Sep 2 2013, 11:07 AM) oh yeah man... but we were expecting they pump in about 200 bar... Control breathing is more important than hoping that your tank is always 200 bar. Usually dive center pump your tank depends on your previous dive history. but not all of us think as what u think as well, some of them when gas used up, most of us will surely goes up... except few... as my buddy used up, i properly goes up and do scuba snorkeling ... Example, if you previous dive has only 20 bar left in your tank compare to others that has 60 bar, then next dive they would prepare for you a 210-220 bar tank. But I guess it depends on dive center whether they care about you having more dive time or not. This post has been edited by lyekit: Sep 2 2013, 11:50 PM |

QUOTE(juniorkirk @ Sep 3 2013, 09:41 AM) yalor... got such thing ah? like this you see everyone will wait in front of the compressor room to get the 210-220 bar tank one... I had my tank refilled up to 220 bar on my last 3 dives during my trip at Perhentian cause for my first 2 dives, my tank goes down to 20 bar after only 40 min. normally dive centers are like that... they will just leave there after filling.. all compressor will have a safety valve... which normally will stop after 200 bar... one of the possibility of having 180 bar might be caused of the tank valve leaking or not closed properly.. don't worry.. when you install your reg, it will automatically seals the leak Tank will be extremely hot after filling, try not to touch the tank during/after filling... so right after they fill the tank, some might get around 230 bar. which we don't recommend student to dive with those tank, we will just ask them to release the air till you get around 200 bar... one of the way we train ow student... like when you fight current, you will use more air... like exercise u/w... Maybe I was lucky but lucky for 3 dives in a row? What do you think? My friend's tank left with 80 bar after 50 min dive continue to have 200 bar tank for his next few dives. BTW, at that dive center, each tank is labeled with our names, so we don't just grab any tank with higher bar... and nobody is allowed near the compressor room except the staff.

How long do we have to wait for the tank to cool down before we can use again? Err, just curious.. what will happen if we dive with any tank more than 200 bar?like when you fight current, you will use more air... like exercise u/w... |

QUOTE(wKkaY @ Sep 4 2013, 02:04 AM) Depending what your equipment (tank, burst disc, connector, regulator?) design pressure is, you may fatigue them faster than designed. Thanks for the info. I need to remind myself this when it's time to get my own equipments. Good thing for now, everything is rental |

QUOTE(yeehong89 @ Sep 4 2013, 11:42 AM) I got mine wif scubatex during mide. But honestly speaking I won't suggest you go for it. Better stick to what your friends using. I would suggest zoop... As I learnt cressi own rbgm model is quite conservative. Even to the extreme when u got into deco mode... I thought Zoop is more conservative than Leonardo? I think Leonardo looks much cooler than Zoop. |

Last time I went to Perhentian with my friends, DM asked my friend to remove the glove.
Diving in tropical water doesn't really need gloves, do we? As in to keep our hands warm. I was thinking of getting it too but now... maybe not. This post has been edited by lyekit: Sep 7 2013, 11:47 PM |
