Azelia Wong –
I am not sure if the magnetic Octopus Holder would hold the weights effectively if it’s near the metal surface and the magnets are against each other. ?
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for sharing your concerns, Azelia Wong. The Problue AC-101 Magnetic Octopus Holder is designed to hold weights effectively, but its performance may be affected if the magnets are within close proximity to each other or other metal surfaces. To minimize any potential interference, it’s recommended to use the holder away from other metal objects. Additionally, make sure the magnets are not over-saturated, as this can reduce their holding strength. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We’d be happy to help.

I also would like to know if this magnetic holder could be adapted for use on different types of surfaces, such as concrete or wood. ?
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for your inquiry, Kaiwen! The Problue AC-101 Magnetic Octopus Holder is designed to be versatile and can be used on various metal surfaces. However, its effectiveness on non-metal surfaces like concrete or wood might be limited due to the magnetic properties. That being said, a customer of ours successfully used it on a steel door, which suggests it might work on other metal surfaces as well. If you’d like to explore alternative options for your specific surface, I’d be happy to help you find a product that better suits your needs.

I still can’t decide between the Problue AC-101 Magnetic Octopus Holder, and another product from brands like SpiderFan or OctoLock. Was the other ones has a removable hanging knot ?
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for considering the Problue AC-101 Magnetic Octopus Holder. We appreciate your efforts in researching our product alongside others from SpiderFan and OctoLock. The removable hanging knot feature is not a standard component of the Problue AC-101 Magnetic Octopus Holder. However, it may be worth noting that this particular model is designed for magnetic attachment and might not require the use of a traditional hanging knot. If you have any further concerns or questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help. We encourage other customers to share their thoughts on the removable hanging knot feature.

Leanne Go –
I’ve been using this Problue AC-101 Magnetic Octopus Holder for a week now, and I must say it’s been a game-changer for my diving gear organization. The magnetic strips are incredibly strong, and the holder itself is very durable. The only minor issue I have is with the suction cups on the bottom – they sometimes slip off the surface, but it’s not a major problem.
Jeraldine De Silva –
I was a bit skeptical about this product at first, but after using it for a few dives, I can honestly say it’s been a lifesaver. The ability to attach it to any metal surface and hold my octopus safely has made my life so much easier. Highly recommend this product!

This Problue AC-101 Magnetic Octopus Holder has been a huge time-saver for me while preparing for dives. The fact that it can hold multiple gears at once is amazing! One question though – are the magnetic strips adjustable in any way?

Has anyone had issues with the magnetic strips on this Problue AC-101 Magnetic Octopus Holder rusting after exposure to seawater? I’m planning to use it for regular dives in coastal areas.
Imran Hanafiah –
Hello Karina Sim, thank you for reaching out to us about your concern with the magnetic strips on the Problue AC-101 Magnetic Octopus Holder. We completely understand your worry, especially since you plan to use it for regular dives in coastal areas. To address your question, we’ve actually had some customers report mild rusting on the magnetic strips after exposure to seawater, but this is relatively rare. However, we want to reassure you that our product is designed to withstand normal use and water exposure. For extra protection, we recommend rinsing the product thoroughly with fresh water after each dive and applying a coat of silicone-based lubricant to prevent rust.

Additionally, we’d love to hear about your experience with the product once you’ve had a chance to use it.
