1) yes still breathe the long hose. You can have a similar air sharing scenario coming through a restriction in a wreck and in a cave. 2) butt mounting is bad for a few reasons. It's good to see your light so that you can tell if anything is going wrong with it. You want it in a position were it can be removable for wreck diving in case you get keyholed in a wreck. It can interfere with liftbag deployment if you keep your liftbag under your plate or on your butt ring. The MLS 2 isn't too big to hip mount. I know. I've done it a ton of times. The problem besides the MLS2 being a crappy light is that the belt loop is way too high. Look at an EE canister to see the proper placement of the belt loop. It should be much closer to the middle of the canister. When you put the canister on the waiststrap, make sure that it is pushed all the way back against the backplate and that it is held on with a stainless steel buckle. You'll also want to shorten the cord on the MLS or you'll have way too much dangling even if it's wrapped around your arm. 3) I'd try to trade the DR dual bladder for a DR original wing, or better yet, ebay the dual bladder and buy a Halcyon. ss On Fri, 31 Aug 2001 scubaroy@co*.co* wrote: > have a lot of cavve diving friends using dir principle, would like > some input on a few topics as it would apply to deep wreck diving. > 1)should you still breath the long hose? > 2)any problems with butt mounting a mls2 with large clips so it can be > ditched quickly, seems too big for hip mounting? > 3)redundant bladder dive rite wings o.k. to use? > > > -- > Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'. > Send subscribe/unsubscribe requests to `techdiver-request@aquanaut.com'. > -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
