Good video! I would love to see a continued video, specifically with setting up the cam straps on the tank and lining them up perfectly with the BCD. I feel like the hardest part is keeping the tanks close to the sides and in perfect alignment so they don't float up or drag down too low. Also, I use transmitters as well, but I put them on short hoses going down and strapped to the side by the top rubber band. I also have SPGs in the top port lollipop style; however, it's a bit annoying because they get in the way. Any suggestions on how I can also run those down and tuck them into the rubber band? I really only use them as a backup for the transmitters, so I don't need them lollipopped in front of me.

We are working on the entire series :) This was just the first one, so stay tuned. So, the redundant SPG monitoring dilema. :) lol I would suggest simply removing the SPG's, in using only pods, there are a couple of thoughts to keep in mind 1. Change your pod batteries regularly (I change mine about every 4 months or so, but I dive a lot). 2. Check your connection and computer regularly before dives. 3. have a spare battery in your Save a Dive kit. If, by chance, it goes out you will be ready on location. BUT, my experience has been this, the pod will show you signs way before it dies that it isn't happy. IE losing connection for periods of time. As for using short hoses on pods? I am not a huge fan of this, since it adds failure points. I work under the "the simpler the better" principle :) There is nothing wrong with the short hose, and I have never seen one fail, but the best way to avoid a problem is to not have it in the first place:)
