Will have a look see and do a bit of research on this. In any case, my next dive would most likely be after Raya though. Unlikely to dive during puasa.

They come with hoses, but you can replace them with something else if you like.

I recommend DIN over yoke, it's more compact, reliable, and lighter.. But you need to ask the dive center ahead of time if they have compatible tanks.

Why do you want the hoses to be turnable? They're useful in some specific advanced setups but aren't an advantage for standard recreational setups. PS i don't think that reg can be turned.

dont bother with the cheapo cameras...i bought a couple, can last six months. at most. and the green colours (white balance lari)... no amount of editing can help.

Eken H8R, not too bad, my nephew's unit still functioning after a couple of years.

Got budget, go for reputable brands like Gopro, Olympus, and Sony

Your yi cam not ok meh?

thinking of change it to rollable hoses than original rubber hose

i thought most of the dive center gas tank is feature for the use of yoke?, so far only dive at malaysia island and i see those tank are for yoke only

with turnable, the octopus wont be pull so much by the hose when turn the head to the left or to the right cause u need to bite hard to prevent it being pull out from mouth
on previously dive there were few time using this turnable regulator, feel much more comfort when head turn to left or turn to right without the need to bite hard

Yea you can change the hoses to braided hose which are softer but requires replacement like every 2 months.
Most island uses Yoke tanks but have Din tanks that has a tank converter to Yoke. They just need to unscrew it.
I think I know what you mean. The turning of the 1st stage low pressure connectors. If you get the braided hose maybe you dont need it. I had both and currently using non turnable one. Not much difference but if you prefer turnable one why not.

yes i mean that, the turning on 1st stage
wow, those softer hoses need to change for every 2month? no matter use or no use? does it expensive?
i mean this type of hose


if request for din tank, normally will it be any extra cost for that?

This camera comes up a lot when I did google search, seems to be highly recommended. Not availble in Malaysia though. The Akaso V50

Sorry. 2 years not months.
No extra cost but depends on availability. U need buy an adapter just in case. But best inform earlier so they can prepare beforehand.

Yi cam, condemn already... the casing broken after a while, then the replacement case flooded. i got another SJ clone, that lasted like 2 or 3 months, it spolt by itself har har. fed up of these cheapo stuff. i'll stick to my Canon, big bulky, but able to take videos with white balance adjustment. happy.

i see, 2 years still ok...
your regulator is din or yoke? does the adapter need to be same brand as regulator for better fit or any brand will do
as im looking on scubapro regulator...but their adapter is much more expensive

Hmm it might be something else that was causing that pull. If you limit yourself to regulators with that feature, there's not many choices left. Apeks UST/DST, Scubapro Mk25, and clones of them.

not limit to that feature, just if it come with is better..
will the price at the mide will be discount lots than buy from shop?
any brand that i should avoid?
full set regulator with the price not more than 3k , which brand should i look for

I use to have a Din reg. My adapter was 160. Brand is not important. Now I am using a Yoke reg. Din too troublesome for me.
Go MIDE look should be able to get regs below 3k but dont go for those like Edge or HOG or any unknown brands. Servicing n quality of build is important.

Come².. no need tu segan bro.. every MIDE we meet new diver from lowyat forum we meet and share² experience and knowledge..some of our member already scuba instructor.. you can ask anything about scuba diving with them..

i think RM 949 is HERO model..for diving i suggest u go to HERO5 $299 or HERO6 $399..all depends on your budget..and remember that the GOPRO price not come with underwater cassing that u need to buy separately..

Me thinking if I shold join Saturday session but me shy2 cos me newbie

anyone experienced DCS?if yes can share cause of it...tq

Don't need to be shy. We are all humble people. Non humble will be challenged.

No. But why are you asking?

Saw a fb post that a diver have DCS while diving in Malaysia,given 100% oxy gas on dive boat before heads to chamber......
wondering how many dive center in Malaysia have the 100% oxygen bottle on the dive boat for emergency case
