BC Mares Icon

The Icon packs up into a small parcel for packing, so it is obviously intended as a BC for the air-travelling diver. more...

BC Seac-sub Air One

Seac-sub's new Air One BC is another lightweight BC aimed at the travelling diver, and as I had just been sent one for DIVER Tests, it seemed daft not to take it. more...

BC Scubapro Equator

It doesn't seem long since the wing-style BC was introduced, and we all thought it was the best thing since sliced bread. more...

BC AQUALUNG PEARL i3

by Farzi Bantin

I THOUGHT MY HUSBAND HAD LOST MY favourite wetsuit, but luckily it turned up just before I went away on holiday. more...

BC MARES KAILA AT

ALL THE DIVE KIT I USE IS BORROWED from manufacturers or distributors. This privilege is extended to close members of my family, so Mrs B was delighted with her Mares Kaila MRS Plus BC, but less than delighted when I returned it whence it had come.

BC CRESSI TRAVEL LIGHT

WHILE PACKING FOR A RECENT TRIP, I noticed that my chosen BC weighed so much that I thought it still had some lead stowed in it. With an eye on my miserable airline checked-baggage allowance, I knew I needed something less substantially made and lighter-weight. more...

BC SEAREQ SEARCH TCB-25

FROM THE SAME PEOPLE THAT SELL the ENOS diver search and recovery system comes the Search TCB-25 BC. Focused on what happens when a diver gets lost at the surface, the designers have come up with a BC that is so visible that it might keep you safe while directing traffic outside a pop concert. more...

SCUBAPRO T-SPORT PLUS BC

It was a relief to review the Scubapro T-Sport Plus, because it doesn't weigh too much. It's not a travel BC as such but it is of a single-bag construction, weighs only a bit more than 3kg and has all the features you need for single-tank leisure diving. more...

BC SEAQUEST BALANCE SL WING

I STILL HAVE A SEAQUEST 3D compact wing that I bought more than 12 years ago. I regularly break it out for use whenever I am single-cylinder diving in a drysuit, or heading overseas and subject to massive airline excess-baggage charges. more...

MARES PEGASUS VS HALCYON ECLIPSE

For anyone who doesn't enjoy pushing bulky items through water, it makes sense to dive with sleek equipment. Two simple wing-style BCs, one from Italy and one from the USA, look as if they might qualify for minimal-style diving. John Bantin looks for a winner more...

BC FROG COBALT

MADE IN SOUTH AFRICA, Frog is new to the British market, and this Cobalt BC was sent to me to try. At first glance it's a very conventional design with only one surprise - the integrated-weight pockets are retained by both a slab of Velcro (which must be folded back on itself to mate with its opposite surface within a second slot) and two large pinch-clips. more...
Diver Tests

BC CRESSI FLEX

This BC is clearly not intended as a heavy-duty item, and you won't see many full-time dive-guides using them. But if you take one diving holiday a year, it should last you a long time and see back the money you might have spent on excess-baggage charges. more...

BC BUDDY TEKWING

The Buddy Tekwing delivers the whole nine yards on features and performance. The only thing against it is the amount of space it takes up in a bag. Apart from the pretence that it is for the travelling diver, I can't fault it. more...

BC BEUCHAT MASTERLIFT AIR LIGHT

When I visited the Beuchat factory in Marseille a short time later, I noted that all its BCs with integrated-weight systems now had a modified release system. Only recently have I got hold of an example. more...

BC BUDDY TEKWING LITE

Under water, this BC was perfect. There was no annoying tendency for the empty buoyancy-cell to wrap itself round my tank, and everything ended up where I expected it to be. more...

BC AQUATEC/CAMARO ATLAS

The Aquatec Atlas BC might be regarded as the Reliant Robin of the BC world if you were to go by its £189 price, but I can assure you that it has a full complement of wheels. more...

The Scubapro T-Sport is a conventional waistcoat-style BC of which Lam would approve. more...

BC Seacsub Pro 2000

THE SEACSUB PRO 2000 JACKET is one of scores of BCs on the market and it has been there only since the turn of this century. So it is impressive that it was voted as one of DIVER readers' all-time-favourite items of kit last year. It came 15th in the top 25. more...

BC Ralf Tech Travelight Tech

LESS IS MORE! I often say that but, of course, I know that Diver readers generally want more, not less. more...
