Argon bottle is Velcro strapped to the side of the doubles , and it has no reg on it, wise guy ( read the whole fucking thing before you spout off like a punk child ). It can easily be removed and replaced in a "keyed" situation in a cave. For wreck the DIR location is upside down on the left hip on a big belt loop ( like the canister light only bigger so it slides over the d -ring and knife easily to be removed ) and is held back against the back plate with a bungee loop that is pulled over the butt of the tank. A smaller argon bottle is generally used for wreck but the normal 13 cu ft at 2015 is fine. -----Original Message----- From: Ian Puleston [mailto:DiverIan@pa*.ne*] Sent: Friday, October 20, 2000 12:46 PM To: techdiver@aquanaut.com Subject: RE: Pony's and deep air > >DIR is against the use of ponies, so you can leave that part out. > >Exact reasons why would be welcome. > > - Ponies are an entanglement hazard.

So what is the DIR placement of an argon bottle - I thought it was fixed to the doubles? -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
