A little tough to put in but so much cheaper than the name brand ones and will definitely hold up and easy to stack and customize count for each lens combination.

These are perfect to use with my Olympus TG6 underwater camera to help keep it neutrally bouyant when shooting underwater. My wrists don't get as tired with these. They can be put on over the Ultralite medal arms.

It is the second time I order this and each time I only receive the 4 floaters, but no arm. It is pretty clear on the pictures and the description that the arm is included. How can I get the arm once and for all? Will I have to ship it back again?

Nice floats that secure to your arms. They are a simple circular design which can leave them a little larger in diameter than they need to be. A simple transition to a more rectangular shape would allow arms to close tighter against each other. Just the nerd engineer in me. Overall, these work OK.

Purchased two sets of the FAXS product as I needed some additional buoyancy for my camera rig after adding an additional strobe and wide angle lens. Already had Styx brand floats so thought I would get these to compare against.Overall they both do the same job of adding positive buoyancy and the FAXS does so at a better price point. The differences really is in the construction. The FAXS are a bit harder to get onto the arms and you are 100% certain they are not going to move because of how much force is needed to put the plug back in. The are also cylindrical with the plug centered. At first I didn't think this would matter but the offset center on the Styx square floats gives some additional movement when pulling the arms in tight. Are these differences a deal breaker? No. If you are cost-conscious or would rather spend your dollars on some other part of your gear these will do what you need.

I needed a float to offset the weight of my dive camera and light, a sealife micro 3.0 and a single sea dragon light. Without the float it was a bit heavy to hold with one hand. One float tied by the light did the trick

I was a little skeptical that sliding the half cylinder of foam into the float would clamp it tight on the arm. It is a very tight fit on my Ultralight arms (and takes a strong thumb to jam the half cylinder in). No problems any time after doing giant strides while holding the camera. Very non-compressive, and I was able to add the floats in a way that left my rig slightly negative from 0-100ft, allowing me to shoot one-handed when needed or make very small position/angle changes when shooting macro.
