Atomic Aquatics T3 Regulator

Posted on December 1, 2023

Atomic Aquatics T3 Regulator

Meet the lovely new Atomic Aquatics T3 Regulator

The T3 is Atomic Aquatics signature regulator. Atomic Aquatics forged a new Titanium standard for the T3 making it one of the finest regulators you can own.

The T3 delivers unprecedented reliability and performance. Incredibly lightweight and corrosion-resistant materials make the T3 a perfect choice for travel in exotic remote locations, where finding service is a remote concept.

 

T3 FIRST STAGE FEATURES

  • Precision-machined from solid Titanium alloy billet.
  • Minimalist yoke design is optimized to use the least amount of material for the lightest weight possible.
  • Atomic Aquatics exclusive balanced Jet Seat high-flow piston.
  • Freeze-protected and factory-sealed to prevent outside
    contamination from silt and sand.
  • Nitrox ready – approved for non-dedicated EAN use with mixtures up to 40%.
  • Ports: 2 HP fixed / 5 LP on swivel cap.

 

T3 SECOND STAGE FEATURES

  • Pneumatically-balanced poppet, high-flow case and lever design for easy breathing at all depths and tank pressures.Patented Atomic Aquatics AFC – Automatic Flow Control.
  • Soft overmolded Rapid Adjustment Knob for manual detuning in special situations such as surf entries or octo use.
  • Patented Atomic Aquatics Titanium Seat Saving Dynamic Orifice maintains crisp like-new factory tuning and prevents damage during storage.
  • Hose features patented all-Titanium Atomic Aquatics Comfort Swivel with Black PVD coating.
  • Dual material second stage cover enables entire front to be used for purge.
  • Elliptical exhaust valve dramatically reduces exhalation effort at depth.
  • Dual silicone comfort fit mouthpiece with tear-resistant bite tabs – both comfortable and durable.
  • PVD coated metal-accent front cover ring.

 

 

COMFORT SWIVEL

The Patented comfort swivel allows 30° rotational movement without binding or kinking. This unique device eliminates cumbersome binding that some divers experience from their second stage.

Atomic Aquatic T3 swivel

PATENTED AUTOMATIC FLOW CONTROL

The venturi effect inside a second stage makes it breathe easy, and the Atomic AFC eliminates the manual adjustment normally needed to regulate venturi effect as you dive deeper. A computer-designed airfoil inside the mouthpiece is connected to a pressure-sensing diaphragm, allowing the airfoil to change position with response to depth. The AFC is the reason Atomic regulators breathe with a comfortable natural feeling at any depth.

Atomic Aquatic flow

No dials to turn or buttons to push‚ but a  rapid adjustment knob is include for rare special situations.

 

Atomic T3 cover

Atomic Adjust

This all comes in a Deluxe padded travel bag.

PADI Drysuit Diver course in May /June 2024

Posted on November 24, 2023

PADI Drysuit Diver course in May /June 2024

PADI Drysuit Diver course in May/June 2024

Extend your diving season! If you want to stay warm and toasty, feeling comfortable in cooler water, you will want to dive in a dry suit.

We will be running the PADI Drysuit Diver course in May/June 2024
Pool Orientation session – Saturday 18th May (9:30am start)
Lake Dives –  Sunday 9th June

Unlike a wetsuit, a Drysuit seals you off from the outside water, this keeps you much warmer, even in surprisingly cold water. This will greatly extend your diving season here in the UK, meaning you can make the most of the autumn, and with the correct undersuit, you could dive throughout the winter.
Using a drysuit will allow you to comfortably go and play with the Seals off of Lundy Island or the Farnes!

You will need to do a small amount of home study before the course, this is all now done with the digital PADI home study eLearning material. You don’t need to come to the shop to get the course arranged and access your digital home study, this part of the course can all be arranged via email, the course can be paid for via BACS or credit card, we will then send you the code for your home study, with instructions how to do this, of course however it would be great to see you before hand, so you can always pop into the centre before the course to arrange it all.

You will need to fill out a short Medical Questionnaire, along with some other standard paperwork,  you can do this via email or in person.

The pool orientation is where you will get to grips with using the drysuit, for this you only need to wear tracksuit bottoms and a long sleeve top, as the thermal undersuit would be too hot in our warm pool. We then get you to the lake to carry out your two qualifying dives in an open water environment.

PADI Rescue Diver Course May/June 2024

Posted on November 24, 2023

Rescue May June 2024

PADI Rescue Diver Course May/June 2024

“Challenging” and “rewarding” best describe the PADI Rescue Diver Course

Learn how to turn yourself into the best buddy, increase your safety, recognise problems before they occur

Our next PADI Rescue Course will be running on Sunday 25th May and Sunday 9th June 2024.

Most divers cite the Rescue course to be the best course they took, whilst serious and testing, you will learn so much to improve your dive skills, and learn to look out for your fellow dive buddies.

We don’t like to think about it but accidents happen, rescue training expands your knowledge of diving, increases your dive skills, and makes you more aware of what’s happening around you. The course helps you recognise and respond to potential diving emergencies in the unlikely event that they should occur.

As a pre-requisite to the Rescue Diver course, you need a valid First Aid certification, taken within the last 24 months, the Emergency First Response course meets the necessary First Aid training required as part of the PADI Rescue Diver course.

If you are a rescue diver who’s First Aid course was over 2 years ago, you will need to do an update, so why not join us on the next E.F.R course.

Call a member of the team, or email us to discuss, or click on the picture to take you to our dedicated Rescue diver Page with further details.

 

PADI Rescue Diver Course May/June 2024

Peak Performance Buoyancy Course May 2024

Posted on November 24, 2023

Peak Performance Buoyancy May 2024

Peak Performance Buoyancy Course May 2024

We will be running the PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Diver course on Sunday 19th May.

Mastering neutral buoyancy means controlling where you are in the water. You glide effortlessly over coral reefs, taking in the beautiful aquatic life whilst ensuring that you don’t disturb or damage it. Buoyancy control means longer dive time due to reduced air consumption.

Streamlining your equipment, getting your weight requirement correct, and the positioning of your weight makes a huge difference. Learn about this on your Peak Performance Buoyancy course.

You will need to fill out a short Medical Questionnaire, along with some other standard paperwork,  you can do this via email or in person.

You will need to do a small amount of home study before the course, this is all now done with the digital PADI home study eLearning material. You don’t need to come to the shop to get the course arranged and access your digital home study, this part of the course can all be arranged via email or phone, the course can be paid for via BACS or credit card, we will then send you the code for your home study, with instructions how to do this. Of course it would be great to see you, so you can drop into the centre to arrange the course as well.
