Pretty Flowers - it's supposed to warm up this weekend to about 3-4C. A few of us might be at Humber again this weekend (TBD) for a noon dive perhaps.
I'd definately be up for this, especially as I need a refresher before Dover.

I'm planning to buy a single and some weight before the weekend, and will probably taxi over. (Curse my lack of transport). I'll send my contact details over to you by PM....

Someone at work has noticed how desperate I am to go diving at the moment.... This means it must be really, really bad!

Hi every one, where can you get the Salvo flash lights / torches in Ontario? I’m located in Guelph.
How are they when compared to diverite 18W wreck lite?
Any idea of cost and parts?
At Humber in the fine silt are they effective?


Thanks

Lawrence D

Are you planning on doing another run of WozBillicals then Woz? With the unfortunate demise of my torch at the weekend my shiny-ometer has been spinning off the scale!

If you can drum up a few cistomers then I'll be more than happy to import another batch. Hang on---- I'll post up a new thread.

General question on the build quality - How have you all found your torches. I've got an old custom divers HID that has finally given up the ghost after many years and am thinking of replacing it.

The salvo's look to be good quality, are they? Has anyone found any problems with their torches? Does the burn-time quoted appear realistic.

many thanks
gareth

Spot the difference
Spot the difference (apart from the price)... even the knurled knob to change the focus is the same colour...

Top Woz Tip- if you have one of the Salvo lights then you can get some really comprehensive maintenance instructions for it off the Halcyon site

My word. Have just looked through the Halcyon instructions and even the battery charger and connectors are identical. No wonder they are sueing his arse.
