Thank you SO much for this little video. There isn’t much practical tidbits like this that are easy to understand for nonpro divers out there like me. Please do more.

[@IgnisLeo1]

Thanks for the quick diagnose videos, actually saw both of them happen while diving already, rising IP and leaking HP o rings in the SPG. Please do more of those quick fixes for minor problems that else could ruin your dive!

Very helpfull video. I like your 'easy tone' tone of explaining. Thanx again from The Netherlands

Thanks for the tip. This happened to me today at Ginnie.

I remember in my OW Class, My Buddy had a small stream of bubbles coming from his Yoke connection. How about a Guide to Regs for New Divers? What would be a Good Entry Level model? And so forth.

[@JillHeinerth]

You may want to carry a 014 ORing in your kit. When the yoke connection is leaking, it may be dislodged slighty or the ORing in the tank valve (014 size) may be old or damaged.

@@JillHeinerth The Instructor saw it. Had me place my hand on the yoke during Navigation portion

Hi Jill. Would you say this spool is "universal"? I have an Oceanic SPG and my son's is Uwatec. Will the spool listed by you work for both? Thanks for this video.

[@JillHeinerth]

yes!

Hello Jill. I just purchased a set of Genesis Prana Reg and Octo. Next I am getting a Sherwood 3 Gauge Console. Should I put some Silicon Grease of the O-Ring when I attach to the HP Port?

[@JillHeinerth]

There should be a sheen of silicone lube on the O-Ring... but not too much. You can ask the dive store tech to install it when it comes in.

[@JillHeinerth]

I would highly recommend building a solid relationship with a dive shop since you will need them for regulator service, air fills and things you can't get online. @@chrisphilhower6029

[@chrisphilhower6029]

@@JillHeinerth Last night I was talking to a friend who is also Certified. He said the same thing about the Local shop. Scuba is a Sideline. Ths shop Favors Aqualung products. I prefer Sherwood/Genesis products. They seem to work well for me. He sells them. Usually Order Only.
