Tec Dive Gear Review....eh Ya, not a fan. Unfortunately I am not a tech dive geek but more of a pragmatic diver who frequently dives in somewhat extreme situations so much of what I see offered is ridiculous overkill and the other half is just high priced necessities.

First rate gear and service Sebastian is very professional and was extremely helpful when I was deciding what to buy. I purchased a Tec One LED light with a Yellow H25 canister battery, excellent light, however, for the type of diving I do I need to get a wider beam light. For a back up I got a mini 3xpg, great performance. I also picked up GoPro Hero Video Lighting Set, I don't use it as often as I should. The lights are very bright, especially during a night dive. I bought a Perch heating shirt and heated dry glove warmers, the shirt is light weight, I don't notice it at all and yet it keeps me warm, the heated warmers aren't as good, there is a small area on the back of the hand that is heated, possibly I'm doing something incorrect, I wouldn't buy them again based on my experience. Finally I have a UTD BCD and back plate, very low profile and easy to dive. I'd by again from Tec Dive Gear!

Good folks to work with even when things don't go as planned I purchased the xDeep Black (Bottom Timer originally, then upgrade to the Nitrox Version) from Tec Dive Gear. The product was provided in a reasonable time-frame consistent with their promise. When I received it I could not perform firmware updates due to what was determined to be a bad cable by xDeep factory. It took some work with xDeep to try and resolve this but once Tec Dive Gear was in the loop this was resolved very quickly. After getting the new cable things seemed okay at first until the unit wouldn't charge or operate. I dealt with Tec Dive Gear directly and they promptly resolved this. As a result I purchased the Nitrox firmware update from them and have found that working with them is more efficient and satisfying then trying to work with the manufacturer directly. Net, they are very good to work with and address problems quickly.

above and beyond service Without a doubt, the best service I have had from an internet purchase. Went far beyond what was expected to help me with my particular situation, Will return to their site again for purchases.

Need Sidemount gear for diving? I needed a new sidemount rig and did not know much about it. The guys at Tec Dive Gear were extremely helpful and patient. They gave me the pros and cons of what I might need and why. The gear was sent directly to my home in perfect condition. My instructor helped me assemble my new configuration and said I got exactly what I needed. Thank you. Raphael NYC
