Good Product, Wouldn't Recommend for Tech Purposes

Got these by accident a few years ago, without the actual mini-SPGs to go with them. Then a few years later I got SPGs for them. Installation involves pretty much boiling the plastic to make it malleable before slipping it over the SPG/hose. From there, the intent to protect the SPG from physical abuse seems to be fulfilled. While I never used the various "handles" to attach bolt-snaps, those are a nice feature, and I would imagine they could be broken away in an emergency. However, a word of warning to tech divers or people diving to higher standards from a reliability perspective: you can't easily manipulate the HP spool should the O-rings partially fail. Found this out first-hand in a cave, and sadly had to turn the dive early. Without the boot, I would have been able to quickly diagnose the issue as the spool and rotate it around just right. Even when out of the water, I couldn't readily replace the HP spool without taking it off which took boiling water, etc. Additionally (and with most/all SPG boots) when I did take the boot off, I found that the SPG itself was corroded somewhat. I'd like to emphasize that I'm not criticizing the product. It protected the SPGs from hard hits against rocks and stuff. I am just giving food for thought when considering this solution, because it does not come without costs later down the line.

As stated before it is a snug fit, which is great in my opinion. You will have to soak it in warm water to get it on but not a big deal at all. I would say the loop on the top seems to be very flimsy so I don't trust using it as an clip or anchor point.

I purchased the gauge boot for my extra SPG. It was $20 cheaper than anywhere else and arrived one day after order. Fantastic service.

This boot fit the gauge snug and well. Had to boil water and soften it up to get it to slide on which wasn't a problem. I will buying more of these for my sidemount gauges
