The Halcyon Mock Canister Stick is a purpose-built solution for divers running a long hose without using a traditional battery canister.

Detailed Description
In long hose configurations, proper hose routing is critical for both efficiency and safety. Normally, a battery canister on the diver’s right hip serves as the anchor point to hold the loop of the hose in place. But when diving without a canister - such as during training dives or when using a handheld primary light - there’s nothing to keep that dive hose secured where it belongs.
The Halcyon Mock Canister Stick solves this problem cleanly and simply. Machined from a solid block of Delrin, it replicates the shape and function of a canister without the weight, complexity, or cost. By threading it onto your waist strap, you create a stable position for the hose to tuck under, preserving proper configuration and ensuring clean deployment in out-of-gas scenarios.
This tool is ideal for divers following GUE or DIR protocols, instructors running courses without light requirements, or anyone maintaining best practices while traveling light. It’s compact, nearly weightless, and installs instantly - no tools, no clamps, just reliable hose control dive after dive.
