SCUBAPRO Octopus Tank Holder, Magnetic

I like the magnet it’s really strong. How ever I’m supper picky and I simple do t like that you have 4” your regulator hangs past for me and this is just me I like o ring type it holds the end and don’t have 4” over. Other than the and if you don’t mind that it’s great.

I pretty much stopped buying dive gadgets years ago, but until now haven't been impressed with any octo holder. This thing works, and works well! Very strong magnet that keeps my octo connected even from high drop in entries.Got to me in the time promised and the price is reasonable.

I do a lot of shore dive in low visibility cold water in Seattle. This octopus holder attaches and detaches well but it has many drawbacks:—The part of the product that attaches to your octo hose comes with a plastic wrapper insert. If you don’t use it, the holder part is too loose and will slide up and down the hose. If you do use the insert, which will prevent the attachment from moving on the hose, you better make sure it’s oriented in the correct direction. Otherwise your octo twists in an unnatural fashion and the torque from the hose kink is prone to disengage the magnet.—My magnet and the screw are already getting rusty and sandy after 10 dives. The rust hasn’t caused any issue but the sand makes the magnet less effective and causes dislodging very often. I guess this is more of a lazy user error. If you brush sand off the keeper often it would be less of a problem.—The magnet dislodges due to various factors (sand, twisted hose) and I’m constantly putting the octo back. Fortunately it’s easy enough to find the magnet and just have the octo snap into place.—The worst inconvenience is that the magnet interferes with compasses and flashlights with sliding switches! You have to make sure your compass and light is on the opposite side of your octo which is usually on the right in recreational diving so compass and lights all go on the left!It’s not a perfect product and I would say if you don’t have the money to buy one and decide for yourself then just get a tradition hose keeper that is more secure and won’t detach or mess with your equipment. It’s too expensive to take the risk with this one.

I have this on my kit and dive 4 times a day everyday and it works great. The cheaper ones will begin to rust. About 500 dives on it and no issues. Don’t be cheap and spend the money, it’s worth it.

I have not bought a cheap one but I know this one works extremely well. Its good enough to hold well but easy enough to pull in emergency. Its well worth the 30$ to me.

I love this octo clip. I used it for the first time diving this past weekend off the coast of Jupiter. Even with the strong currents I don't have to worry about it detaching. Its a very strong magnet that seems to do the job!

Like the Photos show, the Octopus Holder corroded and rusted out. I work as a Dive Instructor in the Florida Keys and I thought this would be a nice upgrade to my Velcro Octo Holder. The magnets started to show rust within weeks and after about two months of diving everyday it had fallen apart. I rinsed my gear after each dive and dried it in the shade everyday. The magnets literally fell out after that time period. For the cost, it isn't worth it if you are working. If you aren't a Professional it may last much longer for you but I still wouldn't recommend it. Great Idea in concept.

Well, it's fairly well made and works OK, I did have my octo fall off a few times though. The down side to a magnetic anything is that it will interfere with a compass. I would look for a different option.
