A Top Hat Hookah unit?

Postby Shaun » Thu Oct 18, 2012 7:31 am

G'Day,

Im wondering if any members would be interested in grouping together & purchasing a Hookah unit?

Haven't thought about any details yet, just putting it out there....

I bought one online for about 400 bucks from some guys who have an online dive shop in adelaide. been a bloody great investment!! I think it has already paid for itself in retrieved glasses and boat parts!!! :lol: about the only thing it doesn't have is an accumulator bottle but for my use that is unimportant but easily rectified. easy to make if you want to as well- oilless compressor and a scuba 2nd stage connected with the correct grade hose is all they are.. plenty of how to stuff on the 'net-

Hi Chris,

How about a photo and the details of the compressor please Chris.

Just a warning here..... the second stage regulator must be a DOWN STREAM type.

Otherwise if the air line comes apart you will lose your tongue up the air line!!!

:o :o :shock: :shock:

sorry about the delay Shaun, here are a couple of pics, unfortunately the guys had remeved the sticker from the compressor so I can't get their trade secrets I suppose... :shock: . Their name on ebay is oz_dive_air, but they don't have anything listed at the moment. You could try sending them a massage or just make your own, plenty of help online http://www.keeneeng.com/ has a good little page(it did have more on it and lots of advice for doing your own but I can't see it there now) go to resources and look for introduction to hookah diving. there is certainly more out there on the net, but be aware that diving with an air supply is much different to and potentially more dangerous than free diving so at least talk to a qualified diver and don't dive alone- oh and don't forget the long nose pliers to get your tongue back if needs be..... :o :lol:
