The SMB they did last time came with 4.5 metres of rope! ;-) > Is this gear any good, or is it just cheap rubbish?? Some bits are OK, others less so. A 3mm wetsuit for £30. If it lasts ONE week's diving somewhere tropical, it's cheaper than hiring a suit for a week. Must be worth considering. OTOH my £70 3mm JAG suit's been fine for 6 yrs at 1 - 2 x weeks per year, so even better! Go down, have a look, see what you think. I have a feww pieces from them in my kit over the years. Some stuff's not survived, other bits are fine. Ken >Is this gear any good, or is it just cheap rubbish?? I've still got the origional torch they did as has my daughter. IIRC it's rated to 30m. it's been a bit further with me and still works fine.

This year they've got a Halogen bulb torch for under a tenner - a bit larget than last year's LED torch - it works off 4 x C cell and looks ok to carry as a spare in your BCD - I've just bought one >> http://www.lidl.co.uk/uk/home.nsf/pages/c.o.20080501.index.ar6 > >They do a similar range every year around this time, if anything a little >early this year. > >Ken Lots of folks in my club use this stuff for pool training - fins masks and their 3mm suits. I always carry one of their LED torches in my BCD as a spare - been there 3 years and it's still fully operational.. I think I've also got one of their SMBs (on a reel with a bit more than 4.5 mm of rope!) and one of their mesh bags. Worth a look.
