Hi!
I'll be traveling for four months next year in Cambodia, Indonesia and Japan and are thinking about bringing a Kraken with me. I've done trips like this before with my trusty Poseidon Jetstream regulators BUT I'm becoming more and more aware of the fact that there are limitations to OC diving in terms of UW-photography! I'm not interested in going "all in" and do CC - mostly because I want to keep things simple. From what I can see and what I've read, the Kraken seems to be a wonderful "compromise" for what I would like to do. So what do I want do be able to do?
1. travel with ONE "bcd" setup supporting both single tank dives with traditional OC-gear AND Argonaut Kraken depending on situation
2. be as LIGHTWEIGHT as possible
3. be able to support dry suit diving (I do a lot of cold water diving) and wet suit diving - I'm looking for 38lb of lift capacity to support sling-bottle
I know there are a lot of very experienced divers on this forum and I'd very much appreciate your thoughts about this!
Happy and SAFE diving to you all!
