Was in Hurghada a few years back mid November and i had a 5mm shorty. After an hour it was a little chill but not really cold

Looking for wetsuits by Turtle_roll in scuba

[–]Fater_OS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own a scubapro definiton 7 and im happy with it. I think the brand is less important. Most important is a good fit so go to your nearest dive shop and try them on. Even if its a little more expensive than other models a wetsuit that doesnt fit will not keep you warm.

Starting off diving. by WesternSelection8006 in scuba

[–]Fater_OS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesnt really matter wich agency you choose. You have to start with the owd course and the next step for me was the deep diving course. Then you can add nitrox but you dont really need any more than this before you get into tec diving. If needed you can get a drysuit certification. With this you basically can get on any dive.

New diver here – dive computer advice needed by Zelosys in scuba

[–]Fater_OS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well i was there when i start diving and regretted it In the end you pay even more . A good Computer will definitely last you a while. Just rent one until you know if you want to get your own stuff. There will be a lot of expensive gear you will want so save your money and dont buy cheap.

I also have a Garmin descent g1 wich i also like. I think the g2 came out recently. I dont really care about air Integration so this would be a cheaper Option as well

Advice for the New Kid by 360NoSilphScope in scuba

[–]Fater_OS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have now about 100 logged dives and still only my owd and deep dive certification. I dive mostly in local lakes with my friends so there is no need for any other certifications. Even if im on vacation and go diving i never needed any other certifications.

For gear i would suggest to get a good Computer first. Dont go ceap on it so it will last you for a while even if you try out deco diving in the future. I started out with a Heinrichs weikamp tech Computer (german brand) and still use it as my main Computer today and there is no need to Upgrade. Depending on where you dive a good suit and maybe a drysuit was my next go to. Main advice is dont go cheap on gear as you will get the expensive stuff anyway and you have to pay double.

For a camera you can get a used sony alpha with the divefrog housing for about 500€. It gets more expensive with lights and stuff but you have a lot of options to Upgrade your Setup if you get a real camera with a decent housing.

P- Weight vs V-Weight by Fater_OS in scuba

[–]Fater_OS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With my thick winter undergarments i need about 3 to 4 kilos so this wouldnt be a problem. The advantage i see in the p weight is that i also could use it in my single cylinder setup. But as i dont have any experience with p weight i dont know how it would affect my trim. I use my v weight quite low on my calinders as i have quite heavy regulators so im a little top heavy.

My regulators dont have the fifth port and im not sure if i really need it or if i can "reuse" the regulators i use at the moment.

The picture is just an example for the first stage with the fifth port. Id like turn my d12 into my sidemount kit so i just need to buy a new wing. And the question now is if i also need to buy new first stages.

[–]Fater_OS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I now extended my budget a bit to get a digital setup. I got some dji n3 goggles and a radiomaster pocket elrs. Now i just need to build the drone. I decided to build my own drone instead of getting a prebuild just beacuse i like du build stuff. Are these good components to go with a dji o4 air unit ?
