THIS ISSUE: AWARD WINNER ROUND-UP
Normally, each month, the SCUBA DIVER test team assembles to rate and review a selection of dive equipment from a range of manufacturers. Products are split into price categories and are then evaluated for performance, comfort, ease of use, build quality, looks and value for money. The Test Team comprises Editor in Chief Mark Evans and a squad of volunteers, whose dive experience ranges from a couple of hundred dives to well over 6,000.
AWARD WINNER ROUND-UP
With the COVID-19 pandemic raging around the world, and the UK - as with many other countries - on lockdown with only essential travel allowed, the Test Team has obviously not been able to get out and run the next group tests, which were due to be mid-price regulators and then top-ofthe-range regulators. These tests will be conducted as soon as we are permitted to travel. In the meantime, we thought we’d bring you a round-up of our previous Group Test Choice and Best Value winners.
ON TEST THIS MONTH: • PRIMARY CUTTING TOOLS • BACK-UP CUTTING TOOLS • PRIMARY DIVE LIGHTS • BACK-UP DIVE LIGHTS • ENTRY-LEVEL REGULATORS
