I wonder if you'll still be saying that in a few years time when your bones are all shot to f*ck? Deep air aint clever matey - get yourself a trimix ticket...

I was the one in the all-black Protec suit. Garf was in red & black, James in the CLX450.

If you are not familiar with the full range of DUI duits, you may simply recall a dashing fine looking chap, cutting a sporting profile dressed to hilt in Halcyon with two unfortunate looking, slightly baffled older 'gents'

That was the other team on the pontoon. James is called Badger because he has more white hair than black

Besides, no matter how much Halcyon kit you are wearing James, it won't make you a better diver

I spoke to Cory at Salvo just now. My light's failure appears to have been in the electronics inside the head, not the mechanical connection to the battery. I'm still undecided about upgrading, so I'll have to do some more pondering.

Im still waiting to find out what was wrong with my torch and when im gonna get it back. One is not ammused !

That is simply not true... The more Hs you have the better the diver - everybody knows that!

And will you stilling be writing a review?

[drunkdiver]

I should be getting it back tomorrow. Hopefully dive it in a puddle at the weekend. Not sure when I will get it in the sea. Ive done 10 sea dives with my backup torch over the past few weeks but not away again till bank holiday.

Saying that will get a few deep trips to the NDAC before then, so should get the chance to do a side by side comparison with a Greenforce tristar and 10watt HID.

Assuming it all works ok I will write a review when ive done this. Maybe next week. As I said before, I expect it to blow these torches away assuming they have solved the problem and it is reliable !
