Christmas Gift Ideas - Scuba Tech Tips: S10E10

[@markstengel7680]

Hi Alec, Almost that time of the year. Great stocking stuffers. That reel has a few non SCUBA uses such as a dog leash or keeping tabs on family, lol. Great suggestions for anyone who enjoys diving. Happy Holidays to you and Kevin both. Best Regard's, Mark

[@elenavivaldo553]

Can you make a video on underwater noise makers? Pros and cons of each one. Many thanks!

[@thomasw5430]

Alec, keep the videos coming. I enjoy learning the history of scuba diving. The one comment I want to make is an item left off this list- how about a gift card to your divers local dive shop that they use.

[@pervytwin4576]

Hi Alec, what make/ model is the dive tool/ knife/ shears? Thanks buddy!!

[@rickkinney2544]

As I recall, we used the inch markings on our knives back in the early days to measure Abalone so we didn't take any that were too small.

[@ronbeatty516]

Great video! The video monitor behind you is quite distracting, though.

[@tkmcdon]

Thanks for another great video! I’m still waiting for your take on full face masks. I’ve been waiting patiently for a year now. Thanks! 😊

[@karendamico5058]

Looking for that glass case do you have a brand. I would come into the shop but I live in California. Thank you love your videos.

[@NormaTLeon]

Hi Alec, I love your videos and also get a lot of great information from them! I am also interested in knowing the brand of that reef safe sunscreen since most of the ones that I find have SPFs lower than 30 and on land I require higher spfs. I heard you mention that the one on the video is 50. Going to Grand Turk in January, would love to order for that trip. Thanks in advance and continue with your amazing informative videos!

[@unclemilton815]

Thanks mate.

[@Str8Flossin]

Alec, who makes that reel? I’d like to buy one. Thank you

[@ronbeatty516]

Search Amazon for: Scuba Choice Multipurpose Dive Reel. $25. I bought one and it works great. None of my local dive shops carried it or I would have bought it there.

[@AndrewR74]

What is the brand of the reef safe sun screen? I currently use stream to sea, but I am really hairy and it's difficult to spread. That stuff looked like a spray.

If the video that was playing behind Alex also had a video of Alex would that go on for infinity (sort of like when you have a mirror behind you and in front of you)?

[@AlecPeirceScuba_SeaHunter]

I've seen those pictures. Pretty weird. So now my videos can be "to infinity and beyond!". Alec

This guy is hilarious,,,

[@AlecPeirceScuba_SeaHunter]

That's something you and my wife can agree on.

[@born2flyau]

Hello Alec Just checking to see if your health is OK? I noticed at the start of this video you were limping a bit when you first walked into the screen.

[@AlecPeirceScuba_SeaHunter]

Ah that's nothing. I limp because it adds to my character. All good old guys limp. Thanks for your concern and for watching. Alec

[@joshschannel4409]

Hey Alec Peirce take a look at this . I think this might peek your interest. It's called Hydroid Aquabreather , There are videos about this product on here.

[@AlecPeirceScuba_SeaHunter]

Pretty neat!! I've often said that, maybe not in my lifetime, but someday, we'll be able to go underwater without big, bulky air tanks. There have been many such products introduced, always as in this case, as prototypes (no working version). I'm not sure about this one. I am always leery of overblown claims and even more so when they invoke the use of words that have no meaning, no use, other than to confuse and mislead the readers. Words such as "alkali metal superoxides", or "superoxide-based multicomponent" and so on. Sounds wonderful but it means very little. Scientists have been trying to convert Carbon Dioxide into Oxygen for years with no success. I love the helmet design though. Apart from the "regenerative breathing apparatus", I'd love to have the helmet. Alec

Hi Alec. I better update my Santa list, he doesn't know all the stupid things I have done this year, HAHA. You mentioned the strobe light by prinston tech is that the same company that made that vintage prinston electro/mechanical bottom timer that I asked you about a few years back? Interesting if it is. Sadly advertising your diving passion is not a great idea these days, Although last year I decorated a scuba tank with lights for outside my house for a Christmas party with some diving friends, I took it in after the party. Take care Owen m

Model trains ARE for older people. Nice ones are so expensive.

[@LeeMorgan07]

I would advise against putting dive flag labels on the exterior your vehicle. If I was a thief, and I knew what the symbol meant, I would assume that there was expensive gear in that car compared to the next one beside it.

[@jbbattle9946]

Why would your diving equipment stay in your car? It should be out hang drying somewhere 🤨

[@jonallen196]

Exactly, and everybody knows divers can't afford anything else worth stealing ;-)
