I had the old XRE750 which I preferred to the later models as this one had a tail switch which is much easier to use. The newest models of metal sub would be XRE 1200 R but I wasn’t impressed with that one. See that video

This is awesome thing for instructors, but terrible for trainees :D When I've done my dry-suit training (been diving semi-dry), on thee last bit ''just dive'' I was slightly behind him and popping +1m then back down and so many shenanigans, then just quickly catch up like nothing happened :D ... was a mess but he didn't have a clue :D Next time another instructor had this one... Never turner himself a 1° (I'm qualified already so...), but he seen everything! EVERYTHING!!! Omg how much spanking and humbling I've got after that :D Without this he wouldn't have a clue as well... I'm good at catching up, not at SAC rate... It's like having someone upside down finning back and looking at you the WHOLE time! Not fair!

Hi, I generally love all your videos but specifically your videos on the Horizon are my favorites. But in this video you’re hinting a next video that’s coming, but it doesn’t seem like it has ever been released? So here’s just hoping that it’s coming :) But thank you very much for your Horizon coverage!

To much faffing about that. If you’re struggling to get in and out of a harness just make the shoulder straps a little longer they don’t need to be so tight that they stop the blood flow to your arms. As long as your waist strap is fitting correctly that’s all you need. When I’ve explained setting them up in the past I tell people imagine it’s a rucksack for walking. Just the same You don’t depend on the shoulder straps for carrying the weight most of it’s on your waist. Also tight shoulder straps hinder movement

@OscarDeCicco I didn’t know that about the lifetime warranty. Why are you considering another mask then pal if you can get another venom? Regarding glass clarity, I think the whole lot is a scam.

@UKDiver
@UKDiver 4 ай бұрын
Sorry pal. Did see this but lost it for a while. Honestly, do yourself a favour and learn to frog kick. Ignoring all the genuine benefits to the life around you and your buddies viewing pleasure of you not kicking the bottom up, frog kicking offers real benefits in terms of B&T as well as air consumption. So better for you, better for your buddy and better for the environment in that you won’t be kicking the crap out of everything if you get close. Deffo worth the investment in time and effort to get the frog kick mastered 👍

I problem I had with the Tecline is that it loosens while on the neck by itself, so you have to adjust just before you enter the water on every dive. Does this also happens to you? Changed the steel buckle system for the plastic press and release and it does the job for me. Excellent mask, totally brutal field of view.

@@Ditz81 I’ve not noticed that to be honest. I tend to keep mine on my forehead when not in use rather than round my neck (drysuits don’t leave much neck room TBH) so maybe as the strap is under tension most of the time this negates the problem 🤷

I have the Radical in clear did not notice the glare coming in or annoying me but I find the nose pocket slightly too big and therefore hard to equalize and the lens sticking to my forehead. Has this happened to you or anyone else using the mask? I might get a back-up mask for next dice holiday, either Apex VX1 or Aqualung Plasma (same as Apeks but cheaper).

This light is 1400lm as per test done by scubadiving. I know that the majority of the stuff is done in China but this one (from the ads specs perspective) feels like classic China product. Like old boomboxes with 1000 watts. It does the thing but why it is so hard to be honest :)

Thanks for sharing, diving in Malta once, very similar situation, nothing that obvs from dive about 6 did pretty much same profile but a girl got bent, turns out she had a really hot shower.... When u said u got in car turned heaters up yo max etc... I thought ummmn could that have done it? 🤔 If you were fully clothed but still cold enough to have to get all the heating on maybe you raised body temp too quickly and a nitro bubble expanded too quickly as a result? Any what a scary thing glad u got through it...

Hey Alfredo. Yeah, I like them. Obviously understand their limitations like any light. They are not going to light up a very large scene. Anything more than a meter or so away isn’t going to be lit. But the battery life is good. They are solid enough. I even flooded one, rinsed it out and it works as if it never happened! I’m pleased with them and have no plans to swap them out currently.
