New Aqua Lung Dive Instrumentation Makes the Complex Easy
Leading Scuba Gear Maker Introduces New Line of Dive Computers & Analog Instrumentation
Aqua Lung, a leading global designer and manufacturer of dive and water sports equipment, have announced the lineup of its new line of dive instrumentation products. This new collection of dive computers and analogue gauges has been engineered to provide reliable, sophisticated dive technology that is intuitive and easy-to-use.
“With our ongoing commitment to being the leading global provider of diving equipment, it was a natural decision to expand into instrumentation,” said Don Rockwell, CEO of Aqua Lung International. “We look forward to serving the diving community by providing a range of high quality, innovative instruments that enhance their diving experience by bringing simplicity to the complex.”
Backed by advanced design, engineering and manufacturing, Aqua Lung’s new dive instrumentation line allows divers to safely and confidently descend into their dive adventure with thoughtfully designed features that harness the power of cutting-edge dive technology. With a wide range of functionality, from analogue gauges to the top-of-the-line i750T dive computer, the Aqua Lung dive instrument collection serves a wide variety of divers’ needs.
“In the same spirit that in 1943 inspired the father of all underwater breathing devices, the CG 43 regulator, Aqua Lung continues our mission to empower discovery for all divers,” said Jeff Allsop, Global Dive Business Line Manager. “Our new collection makes simple what is complex and brings real and useable technology to all divers. As an example, we’ve engineered all of our computers to use standard batteries that can easily be replaced by the user.”
The result is a line of dive computers with thoughtful features throughout that reflect a “complex made easy” approach that allows divers to focus on adventure rather than logistics. They are easy to read in any lighting condition and easy to use with simple, intuitive interfaces and navigation. The transmitter pairs for life and the equipment has user-changeable standard batteries. The entire line of computers is compatible with DiverLog, the best in class digital log book & mobile app.
Dive Computers
The premier i750T: powerful technology and engineering embodied in an intuitive and compact dive computer
Engineered for the technology-savvy diver, the i750T’s advanced performance features include an exceptionally crisp OLED color screen, easy-to-use interface, 3-axis full-tilt compass, a user-replaceable standard battery, and a paired-for-life optional transmitter. Tracking and sharing the dive takes just seconds with its Bluetooth® Smart wireless connectivity to a mobile device.
i450T: a features powerhouse that’s intuitive and sporty
Designed for the active diver and the travel diver, the i450T has flexibility and intuition packed into an eye-catching design. Even small but thoughtful details were considered— once the transmitter is paired, it never needs to be paired again. The optional hoseless gas integration reduces clutter for a more streamlined feel.
The i300: effortless approach with a rugged design
The i300 exceeds expectations—with many features such as its easy-to-use interface, flexible operating modes, built-in backlight and user-changeable battery with data retention. With effortless design, such as an automatic water-activation, it gets the diver right in the water and descending to the next adventure. For Operators, features such as a memory that’s easily cleared, a user changeable battery, and firmware that is updateable by the dive center make it the perfect computer for training and rental lockers.
DiverLog: best-in-class digital log book to record and share your dive information
Manage dive computer settings, view Log and Profile data, add location, notes and other details, as well as store and share photos and videos. The Aqua Lung dive computer is all set to easily sync and upload information to a Mac or PC. The i750T and its Bluetooth® Smart technology allow all of this to happen instantaneously with a mobile device (iOS or Android). More information can be found at www.ediverlog.com.
Transmitters
The Aqua Lung Transmitter, used in conjunction with the i750T or i450T, allows the diver to monitor current pressure and gas time remaining without a stiff high pressure hose, while providing a more streamlined profile. The transmitter pairs for life and up to three transmitters can be used with each Aqua Lung gas integrated wrist computer. Like the computers, the transmitter is also designed with standard user-changeable batteries. Transmitters come in two versions: Nitrox compatible to 40% and 100% O2.
Analogue Gauges
The Aqua Lung line of Analogue Gauges is designed for easy readability and use, with the quality and reliability expected from Aqua Lung products. A Pressure Gauge, Depth Gauge, and Compass are available separately or in two- or three-gauge console models.

May the 4th be with you!
Oyster Diving have recently been given exclusive access to offer scuba diving courses and fun dives at Mercers Lake, a beautiful lake near M25/Gatwick in the UK.
Oyster have just launched their own dive boat ‘The Blue Pear’ to explore various parts of the lake. Divers can glide around the underwater woodland, see lots of fish and decent visibility. Out of the water divers set up in the purpose built kitting up area, unwind in a warm shower, and off-gas in the café & licensed bar.
To celebrate the start of the summer season, AquaSports and Oyster Diving have teamed up to host a Star Wars-themed open day on the 4th May.
Guests will be able to enjoy discounted tasters of various watersports including Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP), Canoeing and Sailing. Oyster Diving will be joined by Apeks and possibly other dive manufacturers to display their latest products. Demo gear will be available for qualified divers and Oyster’s sales support team will be on hand for customers with any questions.
Divers wishing to get in the water will need to book in via Oyster Diving’s website where you can also choose to hire any equipment. Non-divers and well behaved dogs are very welcome!
As well as the watersports there will also be music, food and a licensed bar. The fun starts at 10am and finishes around 4.30pm.
Please come along, wear your finest Stormtrooper or Princess Leia outfit and enjoy the fun!
