Yeah same for me. You can search using Google, type the following into a google search bar site:ukcaving.com lancaster hole

Having multiple divers in the same sump isn't really a problem as you have time to either pass each other, turn around or back out. Obviously, in the free diving scenario, 2 people meeting underwater could be catastrophic. We often leave a set amount of time between divers to split people up a...

I don't have any experience with either the BRIC or SAP, but I have a lot of experience with making, repairing and using the Distox2. These are technical bits of kit and no matter how much you look after them, they are very likely to go wrong at some point. My suggestion would be to buy a...

Jamie, you can have all my paper copies if you like. Probably the last 10 years or so. I'm trying to declutter and I'd much prefer to read them online. B

Yep, access agreement doesn't include commercial trips. It may be possible to negotiate with the estate. B

If the airbell was at -28m, then the air pressure inside would indeed need to be at 4bar (otherwise it would simply just fill up), therefore the bends would certainly be an issue. My software says that decompressing on air, it would take just over 2 days - although this could be cut in half with...

Have you tried in the BPC digging store? There is usually loads in there. B

Wire ladder, AKA Electron Ladder - one of these: https://www.inglesport.com/product/lyon-flexible-ladder Electron Ladders can be difficult to climb and aren't classed as PPE - climbing one without a lifeline is seen in many circles as being dangerous. And yes, using SRT instead is much more...

I know nothing about the Duo S - but it sounds like the battery cannot maintain the correct current at higher settings (so the voltage drops) and the light is warning the user, then dropping down to a lower setting. Assuming the battery is charged, it would imply that the battery is getting...

I've got a Alpkit Cloudbase, which seems pretty good, although I've not used it a lot. I've used it in reasonably gritty conditions and it did fine. Happy to bring it to the Dales if you want a look? B

yeah no worries - next time we're likely to be in the same place I'll bring it along! B

Yep, its a Swaygo - they're ace! For your interest Pitlamp - my Swaygo has been through a shallow sump (The one at the end of Joint Effort in Speedwell) with a drill in it. It didn't leak..... B

Ofd?

You can do a hard reset by doing CLR, FUNC, and MEM for 5 seconds

Is it in silent mode? Try MEM and FUNC to turn it off. B

Yep nettle

Giants?

actually, reading the 1994 Peak Sump index has confirmed its Stemple Highway Inlet Sump 1 and Stemple Highway Inlet Sump 2.

I believe its Stemple Highway Inlet Sump 2, which then became not a sump once the water down Leviathan was redirected down the boulder piles. Cow Arse Worms is a fairly new name - it certainly wasn't called that when I started caving in Peak - I seem to remember it being dry most of the time...

The easiest way would be to measure them with some calipers. If they're bigger than 18mm in diameter and 65mm long then they're probably protected. Also protected cells tend to be button tops, non-protected flat tops (but this isn't always true). I think you'd struggle to tell via measuring rhe...
