| I have one of these.
I had to replace my H version after i had to let go of it during a gentle (my arse) drift dive in Anglesey. But thats another story which involved raised voices, taunting and tears (in that order)
Get on great with it. Its not as good as the H bag. This is due to the plastic inflate piece. The halcyon is metal and is easier to use. The plastic frog inlator has to be pushed in to inflate.
Is removal of this tiny hassle worth the extra £25 quid. No not in my opinion.
Also, i think that the colour of the frog is brighter and therefore has higher visibility at sea. But then if you want to be seen in a swelly sea, this is not the right DSMB. In rougher seas i use my 4.5 foot H DSMB which i have failed to lose yet.
