XS SCUBA CORDURA WEIGHT BELT
Rating: XS SCUBA CORDURA WEIGHT BELT 4/6/2007

Webbing was a little stiff to begin with but with a little use it has become one of the most comfortable, Ive worn. I was diving with integrated weights but it made the BC too unwieldy. Add the DEPTH COMPENSATING BUCKLE and you have a very nice system

DEEP OUTDOORS The Office Accessory System..
Rating: DEEP OUTDOORS THE OFFICE ACCESSORY SYSTEM 4/6/2007

A little big and bulky. Does not fit the BC chest strap as designed. No instruction on how to use it may have played a part my opinion.

XS SCUBA DEPTH COMPENSATING BUCKLE ONLY
Rating: DEPTH COMPENSATING BUCKLE 4/6/2007

This buckle is worth its modest cost. Finally a solution for the loose weight belt at depth.

IDEATIONS DIVE ALERT
Rating: Dive Alert 9/20/2006

A signaling device is essential safety equipment. This one is very loud above water and effective. Below water, it is useless and banging on our tanks is still the method of choice. Tony M

XS SCUBA TANK BANGER
Rating: Tank Banger 9/20/2006

Great for long aluminum tanks with no boot. These are the common tanks we get in the tropics. Not very useful for my steel tanks with a boot that I use at home. Tony M

Rating: New but not necessarily better 9/20/2006

i have the original 1 watt q40 e.led. i expected the 2 watt model to be brighter sadly, it seemed a little less bright. it is still a good mask mounted light and a good value. tony m

DEEP OUTDOORS LARGE MULTI-USE BAG
Rating: Great gadget bag 9/20/2006

Once I figured out how to use it (I had to go to the Deep Outdoors website), it is a joy to use. Hang the bag off my right BC belt (I use and OMS IQ system) and pull the straps around my leg and I can eliminate most of the items hanging off my D rings(SMB, light, etc.). Keeps me more streamline.
