This is what I love about UTD. Progressive and always thinking.

Just use the Razor goodman handle. You can lock and unlock either your primary or your backup onto the same Goodman handle. Solved all these problems.

[@UTD_ScubaDiving]

Thanks for your comment, even though that Razor handle is a nice product. We can't really use the bungee system for stowing the light and placing markers temporarily. Also when your primary light is a canister light that needs to be stowed.

[@avieorbb]

I use a cannister light (Nanight C3) and I have a razor adaptor mount for it. The soft handle stays on the wrist but you can twist the light to unlock it from the glove and stow it away. It’s very easy to add bungee to the glove to stow cookies onto it temptation per your use-case. Not a razor shill, just a product that solved a problem for me.

Do you UTD folks use the long hose concept in CCR? Just from looking at the CCR unit in the video

[@UTD_ScubaDiving]

Yes, we always have a lonhhose donatable on every platform we use. The video shows a PSCR but the same goes for CCR snd Side Mount

[@Chogogo717]

For my light setup (cordless BugBlue TL5200P) I can fit 5 or 6 cookies on the side of the bungee which I love. The backup light can fit if there are no cookies, but in exiting the cave do you just start shoving the cookies you pulled in your pocket?

[@UTD_ScubaDiving]

Yes, we teach to only store the markers, ( we only use REM’s ) temporarily on the light head. Like if you know that there is a T coming up. Or if you know you will be making a jump. On the way out we can pick them up and stow them on the light, while taking out the pigtail from our right pocket and no transferring the stowed REM onto the pigtail for yes to stuff them back in our pocket.

Why is the sound out of sync

[@UTD_ScubaDiving]

it's fine on my end. maybe a bad connection
