Today’s BCs are complex pieces of equipment, with a host of features, capabilities and details. Check out ScubaLab's review of 16 new BCs.

Part of Apeks’ line of tec-oriented wing systems, the model we tested was built around a new ultralight travel plate, 18-pound-lift single tank “donut,” one-piece harness and SureLock weight system. For its performance and flexibility, the WTX is our Testers’ Choice.

The restyled Travelight offers enough stability, comfort and amenities that it’s easy to forget it’s not a full-featured jacket BC with a rigid backplate. Ready why the Travelight was voted Best Buy this year by ScubaLab.

This latest model from Mares shows how manufacturers continue to distill all the best qualities of jacket-style BCs. Read why the Mares Prestige 2 MRS+ is this year's Testers' Choice for jacket BCs by ScubaLab.

Aqua Lung’s Zuma BC saves air travelers precious weight and bulk. Its soft backpack design is compact and weighs less than five pounds, yet still gives divers creature comforts like a lumbar support and integrated weights.

DOLPHIN TECH helps divers keep a low profile with two new side-mount buoyancy systems. Rated for either 21 or 42 lbs of lift, the SMB harness and bladder are ideal for qualified divers venturing into caves, wrecks and other confined spaces.
