I used to have an aqualung Zuma which I loved but it didn’t have enough lift capacity, now I’m diving hydros Pro from Scubapro - but it isn’t really a travel friendly BCD. I do like the looks of aqualung rogue and outlaw. But really don’t know if I were to choose which one to go for? So if you were to decide between those two, which one would you go for? If is there another alternative that is comparable regarding lift capacity, soft backplate and overall very low weight? I’m size small, dive wetsuit and drysuit - don’t need pockets as I have mastered the Christmas tree approach to accessories, and definitely don’t want jacket style BCD. Any opinion or advice? (2)lj.gilarranz #AskMark: Hi Mark, I have a good old Scubapro Mantis dive computer and thinking about upgrading to something with a transmitter. All computers are capable of beeping, and of course they continuously monitor a lot of parameters, however, I don't seem to find a computer that let me program when I want it to beep. The use for what I want to do is to tell my computer to beep when my NDL is at two minutes for instance, or if I have a transmitter, I want it to beep when my tank is at 100 bar, or 65, or whatever. Even more interesting would be with a computer like the Garmin where I can monitor two or more tanks at once, it would be awesome if I could tell it to beep if anyone in the group reaches 100 bar. No cheating mode activated! Cheers! LJ (3)Bloody Marvelous #askmark How do you feel about a helium release valve on a dive watch. (4) dvnultimate #askmark Hi Mark, could you pls give advice on dive lights (for example min. lumen, spot vs wide, or go with zoom, burn time etc))? I am looking to buy my first torch for recreational diving (mostly for night dives, otherwise in the pocket for safety). Would be a mares eos 10 lrz, or 20 lrz, or a Seac 40R an overkill? Lastly, what do you think about the soft goodman handles? Thanks in advance✌️ (5)Jake Rees #askmark I'm looking into options for masks to not fog, normally it's not a problem but when I forget to shave I get fogging problems from clearing too much. Cressi A1 seems great, but I assume the anti-fog coating wears off after time (especially if it gets scratched). So maybe the Cressi Quantum is a better long term option, just concerned all of the extra seals/membranes will make clearing difficult. Thanks and keep up the good work! (6) Ido Lempert #askMark Do you bother to fill the BCD in fresh water after every dive? If so - What is the best method to do it?
