22.01.2022 More cool things from Light Monkey this year. As Light Monkey dealers we can supply any and all Light Monkey products not just a small selection. Contact us with any questions about Light Monkey products or service requirements (we stock light spares, including replacement cables).

22.01.2022 Check out dive at Madison Blue Spring, back here next week to attempt a run through ‘Rocky Horror’ in a stage dive. Should have some good video from the restriction to post next week. 4 diving days left on this trip, some good dives coming up!

20.01.2022 Cebu is now confirmed for some NAUI DPV (scooter) training! We will also try to make a couple of cave dives while we are there. So from July 27th until August 3 we will only be available via phone and email.

18.01.2022 Attending the annual NAUI Representative meeting in Kuala Lumpur. Lots of great things coming up.

14.01.2022 Just about to do our last dive of the trip, Cow Spring. Then it’s washing, drying and packing before departing for service training at Light Monkey. Followed by a quick stop at NAUI HQ before checking in at Orlando International Airport.

14.01.2022 Service training today at Light Monkey. Amazing to see how many brands are actually made by Light Monkey, some big and well known brands on the shelves. Great setup and a very knowledgeable team. We learned how to change light cables, tricks to get the sealing gland tight but not too tight and what tools to use to avoid breaking parts. Bringing a bag of spare parts home with us. They also have some great things in development and some amazing add ons that will make owning a Light Monkey Light particularly special, stay tuned for a web site update.

06.01.2022 First Aid Instructor Trainer workshop.

04.01.2022 End of our second Cave Diving Trip but we finally managed to dive Telford Spring. Property owner will not allow people to cross his land to dive it so we had to use a boat to travel 100m up river (water is state owned). River was low enough that the flow was nice and clean out of the spring.

03.01.2022 First dive today Cow Spring, from the entrance to ‘Change Up’. Great dive to a distance we have not previously been, next challenge is to take a stage cylinder to allow us to penetrate further. The video is from the surface to part way through the entrance route.

02.01.2022 Today’s stage cave dive at Madison Blue Spring, 530m in we reach ‘Rocky Horror’, only one team at a time in the 90m long restriction, very cool! Out the back it drops straight down to 30m in the well, had to turn the dive when we hit 3rds before ‘Pressure Gauge’. Our best dive by far, 101 minutes total dive time.

01.01.2022 After almost 20 years we have decided to update our website. While the new site is being developed we have replaced the old site with a small temporary contact page. As our web software was so old the new hosting provider couldn’t support our old files so we had no choice but to retire the old site. Hopefully in a couple of weeks we should have a new, modern website fully up and running.
