If you are trying to get a Reg, BCD and computor set up for the $1500 I would recommend the following. It’s the exact setup that my girlfriend uses (Dolphingirl ). She bought all new this season. We did a lot of looking around for te best price on the best eqipment that she she could get. Let face it, its a tough economy right now and we all need to be a little more frugle with our spending.

She ended up bying the Pearl i3 BCD. She absolutly loves it. Best support in a BC that she has ever used, she has been diving for over ten years now. It is a little pricy in the $500.00 range but well worth the money. The reg set she bought was the Aqua Lung Titan LX. It is a very light reg that offers adjustment durring a dive that is very easy.

She has had the reg to 100’ and said that it felt no different than when she was on the surface. I dont recall the octo that she bought but I know that it was an Aqua Lung and that she paid around $90.00 for it.

The computor is an Areis Atmos AI. one of the most user friendly comp on the market. Super large display on what counts while under water. But the comp is not too big. It is an air integrated computor as well. You can get tese starting out at $450.00
