Saw a huge difference in visibility after switching to a new comms system

We were doing a salvage job in Tampa Bay last month and the water was murky as usual. I swapped my old hardwire comms for a wireless system from OceanTech, and the difference was night and day. Not having that cable dragging meant I could move my head freely and actually see the work area better. It only took one shift to notice I was finishing tasks way faster. Anyone else made a gear switch that unexpectedly helped with something simple like visibility?

Honestly that sounds like a placebo effect from buying new gear. A cable never blocked my view enough to matter on any job. Probably just got a confidence boost from the shiny new tech.

My buddy actually tripped over a cable and broke his wrist on set last year.
