Women's Hera BCD (Medium, Lightly Used) by Oceanic

SKU:

Oceanic Hera Women's BCD: Custom Fit and Hybrid Lift

Scuba gear needs to fit your actual body to perform correctly. Dive Right In Scuba offers this lightly used, size Medium Oceanic Hera BCD to give you a premium, female-specific rig at a massive discount. With fewer than 10 dives logged, this like-new jacket comes fully serviced and completely ready for your next trip. Oceanic surveyed over 300 female divers to build this BCD from the ground up, ensuring you get a harness contoured exactly for your frame rather than a clumsy, scaled-down men's design.

Automatic Adjustments and Secure Fit

Struggling with a loose BCD at depth throws off your buoyancy and ruins your focus. The patented depth-compensating cummerbund uses a unique woven elastic material that automatically adjusts as your wetsuit compresses. You never have to tighten your straps in the middle of a dive. The Custom Fit Harness pairs with an Adjustable Positioning System (A.P.S.) track to give you up to 8 inches (20.3 cm) of precise adjustment across the shoulders and waist. This tailored fit keeps the extra heavy-duty padded backpack locked securely against your spine to prevent tank shifting.

Streamlined Profile and Upright Surface Float

Floating face-down at the surface wastes your energy before the dive even begins. The hybrid bladder design gives you the streamlined swimming profile of a rear-inflation rig while wrapping the air cell forward to keep you perfectly upright while waiting for the boat. This size Medium provides exactly 15 Liters (33.07 lbs) of lift capacity. To control that lift, the ergonomically designed Reliant Integrated Inflator features a massive exhaust valve. This valve vents air faster than the power inflator adds it, preventing dangerous runaway ascents. A right shoulder pull-ball exhaust provides an additional venting option.

Effortless Weight Loading and Extreme Durability

Loading lead into your rig should feel simple and secure. The QuickLock Release 4 (QLR4) weight pockets angle downward slightly, allowing you to slide up to 20 pounds (9 kg) of dumpable weight into the positive-lock system by yourself. Dual rear pockets hold an additional 10 pounds (5 kg) of non-dumpable weight to perfect your horizontal trim underwater. To ensure this BCD survives years of aggressive diving, Oceanic covers the exterior abrasion points, shoulders, and pockets in tough Fadeless 1000 Denier Cordura. Large zippered main pockets give you huge storage space for your backup mask or dive light, while four pre-bent welded stainless steel D-rings provide clean attachment points for all your extra accessories.

Stop fighting with poorly fitting gear. Grab this like-new Oceanic Hera Women's BCD from Dive Right In Scuba and dive a rig built exactly for you.

California Proposition 65 Warning

Proposition 65

Safe Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 – Warnings Required

WARNING: This Dive Right In Scuba product can expose you to certain chemicals which are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. For more information go to  www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

We appreciate your decision to purchase Dive Right In Scuba products to provide the best in water experience. We take our job seriously! You may have noticed that our products now show a warning label at point of sale referring to carcinogens and birth defects. You may also have begun to see warnings related to carcinogenic substances or substances causing birth defects prominently displayed in hotel lobbies, hospitals, or other places of business recently. These warnings are required by the State of California, and we believe that an explanation of the California statute legislating the requirement will provide you valuable information regarding the relative risks of the chemicals that may be present in consumer products.

In 1986, the State of California passed the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act; otherwise known as “Proposition 65” or "Prop 65". Prop 65 requires businesses like ours to disclose to individuals the presence of chemicals listed in the Act prior to point of sale. The regulations implementing this Act have been amended over time with the most recent updates will take effect on August 30, 2018. There are more than 900 chemicals on the Prop 65 Chemical List, including many chemicals that are found in components of a wide array of consumer goods or are used to manufacture components that make up consumer goods.

Prop 65 does not establish acceptable concentrations for any listed chemical; however, the agency which enforces it has established what is called "safe harbor" exposure levels for about one third of these chemicals below which warnings are not required. These "safe harbor" are established for listed carcinogens based on the quantity of the chemical that would result in one excess case of cancer in an exposed population of 100,000, assuming lifetime (70-year) exposure at the level in question. A similar process is used to establish safe harbor levels for listed reproductive toxicants. Additional information in plain language on safe harbor levels is available from the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment at http://oehha.ca.gov/Prop65/background/p65plain.html

At Dive Right In Scuba, the safety of your in water experience is our highest priority. We go to great effort to select materials that offer superior value, quality, and durability while also being generally recognized as safe and reliable for the full life of the product. Dive Right In Scuba also works closely with many regulatory bodies, such as the US Coast Guard and Underwriter’s Laboratories, to ensure the longevity of your on-water safety through targeted selection of durable, long lasting materials and components that undergo significant validation testing before being used to manufacture end items. Sometimes the safety promise we offer appears at odds with the health and safety requirements of other legislation in certain parts of the world when some regulations are updated ahead of others. To ensure compliance with applicable legal requirements, Dive Right In Scuba has placed a warning on products that contain a Prop 65 listed chemical, either directly or as a part of the raw material supply chain. This allows us to comply with California law and provide our California consumers with the disclosure required by Prop 65, while still promising the safest on water experience possible.

Dive Right In Scuba is working diligently with regulatory bodies and our own manufacturing partners to continue to continue to improve our product performance and reduce the presence of less desirable chemicals. Water is a precious resource we all share that is important to the health and well-being of our planet and all people. Our goal is to continue to enhance your water life experience while reducing our overall impact to the planet and, in particular, its waterways. While it is a bit of a juggling act to achieve, we are confident you will see continued improvement in both the immediate and long term future. We hope this explanation will enable you to understand why you will be seeing warnings on some our products.

Thank you for your continued use of Dive Right In Scuba products.
