TS Pro and Mako BCs
Here's a pic of Dave Silverstein with the Mako BC, the last of the line of custom BCs for spearfishing...until now!

Here's Steve Bryan in the TS Pro BC, the closest BC to yours Brian, except it has the really sleek 27 lbs bladder. We called it 24 lbs because we didn't want anybody to use it for high lift situations.

Custom Mako BC
These BCs were definitely VODs!
For many big fish it was the last thing they ever saw! Chad

It dawned on me that that might be one of the old TS BCs, but I couldn't see the photos well enough to determine that for sure.
Thanks, Chad!! |

I have the Ranger BC and really like it...I probably have over 150 dives on it, but I have noticed in the last few dives that the inflator seems to stick slightly. After about five minutes underwater, I notice that I'm positively bouyant and have to dump air. Took the BC by my LDS and was instructed to unscrew the allen screw and soak the mechanism in vinegar and water solution.
My questions: Is that the best method of cleaning? & Should I clean and replace or spray with any lubricant or silicone before I reinstall?

We sell an inflator service kit, which will replace the entire valve modual. I would highly suggest having this down if you are experiencing a "sticky button"!!!!
Any Zeagle dealer should ba able to take care of it for you! Scott |

Re: Ask Zeagle Systems...
Forget it, Scott. I actually found this thread by using Google: http://www.spearboard.com/showthread.php?t=22399
So what is up with it? Is it at market?

Re: Ask Zeagle Systems...
Roland - The Flathead IV is a dry sealed reg that will perform better in cold water. The Flathead XP doesn't have the enivromental seals, whic make it perform a bit better. For the divingthat you are doing, the XP will be a great choice....those are the regs that Dan and Ricky used for the 400+ ft dive that scored that huge warsaw grouper.
Scott - It is still a work in process. As I'm sure you can imagine, the last thing that we want is to release it before it is ready and have a problem. I saw last week that Oceanic had to replace 6,000 computers due to a recall. Something that huge would seriously cripple our company, as we are not nearly as big as Oceanic!!! As much as I would love to give a definitive date, it is simply not possible at this time. You guys will be among the first to know....trust me!!! |

Re: Ask Zeagle Systems...
just bought the deluxe bp harness and wing with zeagle pony mount, just have to say how much I love it. I can't wait to get this thing wet, hoping next weekend. I think I will be diving my pony tank always now with this new mount so easy and nice. I had the ranger ltd which was a really nice bc but this new setup is really sweet and compact.

Re: Ask Zeagle Systems...
You guys are going to have to bring that new puter out soon, as my Aeris 300G is getting really long in the tooth.
