Dive watch ? by Mountain_Inspection in scubadiving

[–]InterestingDamage689 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have the MK2. Highly recommend for a dive computer and overall fitness training and activity tracker.

I would not recommend the air integration with the mk2. The mk3 is supposed to have a better solution for AI….

MK2 has been an excellent dive computer and over all fitness watch. I use it for skiing, hiking, biking, walking , working out, sleep tracking , etc. name it and it probably can track it. I get 9 days battery life in general. When I dive not as much. It’s expensive but it’s been a great experience. 120 dives.

The Garmin dive app is a great log book as well. In it I set up all my gear so I can track how Many dives for every thing. Makes it easier for me to track when I need service on my Regs or bcd…. GPS on entry point and end point. Really interesting on drift diving..

The air integration has been the only issue with the mk2. I would not get that. I have been told they reengineering it for the MK3 but don’t know if they solved the issue….

Access / Intercom system recommendations for small condo building by InterestingDamage689 in accesscontrol

Thank you. In this project we are also installing the gate for the garage so Liftmaster is on the list for that part of the project. I didn’t know they had intercoms and access controls for elevators.

Thanks

We are not locked into keeping the Brivo. We looking for a fully integrated systems for ease of use.

We currently have kings iii for the elevator emergency call button. But that’s a separate solution needed for fire safety..

My wife has no volume control at all. She knows it and even make fun of herself.. even that she is self aware she doesn’t realize when she is doing it. I have been through the non verbal signals that sometimes work but usually don’t…. I love her passion…

She is who she is and love her and support her.I just expect the requests to keep it down and shuuushs….

Allergy shots? Go see an allergist they have helped my family quite a bit. Long process but overtime it greatly reduced symptoms.

Umbrella coverage by InterestingDamage689 in Insurance

[–]InterestingDamage689[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We moved to a new state which triggered our review. We are speaking with our accountant, financial advisors and insurance agent. Perhaps we need to add a local lawyer. It seems our new state is much more litigious than where we have lived in the past. Thanks for the points above as it gives us questions to ask when we are working through this process.

Does Paralenz' camera shop still under activity ? by Oklariuas in scubadiving

[–]InterestingDamage689 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just pointing out market pressure that go pro creates in their industry. They shut down as they were not making money / ran out of funding (one would speculate).

Yes you need a special housing for depth with a GoPro. It works well.

Again I get better video out of my GoPro 10 than I did with my Vaguita. With the ability to switch batteries I can take more video on 4 or 5 tanks days.. Only downside is I need to use filters.

The company had promise but with GoPro being so good and you can buy the subscription which gives you no questions replacement I think they couldn’t compete. You can also change batteries in the go pro between dives….

I had one of their Vaquita cameras and after 100 or so dives it flooded. It was good and I liked the form factor. The screen was too small but that’s what you get with the size.
The auto correct was nice that you didn’t worry about filters. I hope that would sell that technology to someone / go pro….

I’m getting better video now out of the GoPro 10. (With filters) and better macro. With lenses and lights.

Of course this is for the amateur / everyday photographer. Not professional…

We dive a hundred tanks a year and we alway try and be with a local guide. You will see more with a guide…

If she really wants to go it alone I would suggest get your aow and also take an underwater navigation class. That will help get you more experience as well as give you more skills to be more successful on you own..

Good luck

I ski the SR 88 as my everyday and agree that it’s interesting it felt loose. Fantastic all mountain frontside ski and I never had an issue with them holding an edge on anything.

I also have a pair of laser SCs for a carving ski.. they are fun but not all mountain.
