Just bought a new pair of goggles and a snorkel Ed, didn't think I would "ever" need such a thing again but I have bought a gold dredge and ........ now I need to see what I am doing under the water! :facepalm:

The video model sounds interesting, I will tell my dredging friend, see if he's interested, OK!

(sigh) No fool like an old fool, seems like it's true! :yes:

That was the first thing on my mind.
Don't need a mask for that.


Oh hang on...............

Muff diving is an applied art and counts for everything! :love:

(sigh) It could also be described as somewhat of an "acquired taste" :bleh:

Recommended Energizer alkaline or Lithium although any alkaline battery will do the job. Can use NMH-Lithium as well.

Very cool masks (good price too!). Don't suppose you happen to have one in the country? I just want to see how hard it is to take a still.
Or even if you have the instruction manual.

I've got one being delivered today as a major dive site wants to take one to the Chathams this Thurs to do a sea trial and write up on it. I can get as many as you want anytime, they are in the country. I assume they are easy to operate, I can try to get a copy of the manual today.

Sorry I think I misread your question. The big King Pelican runs a Xenon bulb, takes 8 x D size alkaline and runs about 10-12hrs. It's bouyancy neutral, 100,000 candle power and was my biggest seller to farmers as it would pretty much daylight half their paddock!

RRP on these is $312.00 but I have a few available in limited colours for $190.00 and for KB'rs I'll include a minilite worth $40.00 free!

All Pelican torches are guaranteed unbreakable for life!

Yes.... wearing a mask is all about safety when diving..... anywhere. :gob:

Guys, (and girls), my pricing is less than half what a competitor is charging for these! A major dive company has just left today for the Chathams to do a sea-trial and review on the masks and the Pelican torches. They will be publishing their findings in a couple of weeks. Suffice to say they were very keen to get their hands on them and take them with them!

These guys are among the most experienced divers in the world and have dived around the world so to get their endorsement will be a biggie for my little company! They were also very impressed with my pricing!

Gidday gorgeous! Haven't "seen" you around these here parts for a while! How's the family? Mum and Terry are coming up tomorrow for the weekend. As soon as I can ditch this brace we'll be coming down for a trip so maybe we'll be able to catch up soon. I see my surgeon next Wed. and am very hopeful of good news!

These are the ones you need, mate! How about a special KB price of $86 for the 3.1MP and $100.00 even for the 5MP...? :msn-wink:

Done. Keep a 5mp one for me. PM me an address and I'll shoot up this weekend for a time that suits you and pick up / pay cash (unless you have to order 1 in).
Any way to fit the side lights to the 5mp one?

Same Ed.
The torch shopping list is being compiled. Hope to have a complete list for you before next week.

Guys this mask is pretty sweet. Is VERY EASY to use. And makes for amusing photos when you take them with a dive mask.
Very handy if you wanted a waterproof camera for the holidays too. aka "the beach camera".

I am contemplating taping it to the bike tank and going for a rainy day ride.

LOL!!! You'll have to post some shots! Nothing like thinking outside the square, eh? Sold another one last night! The Scuba model which I've got $200.00 cheaper than my competition!

Went to Goat Island today. My son and the Missus wanted to try them out. Jill's mask only had the 16mg onboard memory so she didn't get much by the time she worked out how to use it, but Mike put his 2Gig SD card in and got some great shots and video! Here's a few from today's outing. Bear in mind Mike's an amateur and the results will be about what the average person will get on their first use.

I think I'm hooked now. I found myself checking out wetsuits today. Hey if anyone wants a good wetsuit at Warehouse prices, I know where to get them from... :innocent:

These masks are starting to take off and I'm now negotiating to become a national distributor for the company's products.

So for anything to do with diving, just ask... :yes:
