Microstrobe Unit

04 November 2012 - 05:01 PM

Hi,

I bought one of Hedwig's Micro LED Strobes for my Aquatica A7D Housing with the new YS-D1 strobes, unfortunately, I couldn't get them to work. I guess this is due to the off centre position of the S&S's slave sensor. But this is supposed to work well with Inon strobes as per this post on the WP forums: http://wetpixel.com/...opic=44632&st=0

$120, including shipping anywhere in the US & Canada.

Cheers

Hi,

I've got a dealer demo unit for the Aquatica A7D housing, comes with the optional moisture detector, 2 x 1" Balls for the handles and spare Oring set. Retails for $ 3116.00, asking $2850. Housing is set up for with 2 optical bulkheads for S&S strobes and we have the Inon style bulkhead included as well. Housing looks great, has about 30 dives on it.

Will include shipping anywhere in Canada or US.

Restauranteur refuses to back Shark's Fin Ban

14 July 2012 - 11:56 AM

Hi Folks

Just thought I'd bring this topic to light, it's happening literally in my own backyard of Richmond BC. The owner of this restaurant feels that the Chinese people are "part of the food chain" and are thus entitled to eat Shark's Fin Soup.

The arguements put forth by Mr. Chung are both uneducated and dangerous. For those on FB, you can post your comments here but not sure how long they'll last as they've been deleting them regularly.

It's people like this who perpetuate such lies and misunderstanding that makes shark conservation such a hard sell in the Chinese community. As one of Chinese descent, I wholeheartedly support a worldwide ban on sharks fin.
