There are two options for adjusting the weight of your Halcyon Active Control Ballast System's pockets. One option allows you to place the pockets vertically. Both systems can hold a maximum of 2,6kg. The system is adjustable to your desired weight, and includes an Active Control Ballast (ACB). It is crucial to choose the right weight pockets for your cycling gear in order to maximize safety and effectiveness.
Reduce weight
The Halcyon tank mount weight pockets now have a Trim weight pocket. It allows divers up to 10 lb. The pockets allow divers to shift up 10 lb. Pockets counteract the buoyant effects of almost empty cylinders. With a weight pocket, a diver can enjoy more bottom time, reduce effort, and maximize their enjoyment while diving.
Active Control Ballast integrated system
The ACB is a vertically integrated and releasable weight system that holds up to five pounds of weight per pocket. This design offers easy release and placement and does not take up too much space on a diver's waist belt. To increase safety and versatility, the ACB can be fitted with an Explorer Light System. Side release buckles prevent accidental lead weight gain and permit quick access when required.
Mounting on bottle strap
New tank-mounted trim pockets from Halcyon encourage optimal weight distribution and promote comfort while diving. They can also reduce effort and promote in-water stabilization. The pockets can be mounted on the tank or in the water column. They make it easy for you to balance your cylinder's weight for maximum in-water stability. These are the pros and cons to tank-mounted weight pockets.
Heads-up surface airway protection
The Halcyon Trim Weight Pocket, a new invention by the manufacturer, is a great innovation. It allows for optimal weight distribution and promotes comfort in the water. This feature allows divers to shift weight from their waist to the cylinder, improving propulsion and horizontal trim. Divers can enjoy a longer bottom time and a greater enjoyment from the dive. In addition to the positive effects of shifting weight from the waist onto the cylinders, Halcyon's Trim Weight Pockets counteract negative effects of near empty cylinders. They reduce effort required for divers to maintain their head and keep them horizontal.
Cost
Halcyon Weight Pockets are a great choice if you're looking to improve your diving or just want to evenly distribute your weight. These pockets slide over the tank's cam bands and provide a secure location to add additional weight. These pockets can hold up to 5 lbs of ballast depending on what tank you have. Although the cost of Halcyon's weight pockets will vary by brand, they are very affordable.
