After a brief flirtation with the Teric I'm back with the Perdix. My little dive light with dual circular o-rings in a dynamic capacity, and needing to open to recharge the 18650 at least once a day while diving has never flooded. My Perdix with dual circular o-rings, in a static seal, opened...

Bump with closeup.

They were long the target of derision and ridicule here on SB until split fins took over.

Offered is a mint condition green Shearwater Teric with 21 dives, manufactured 2023-10-11 and still under warranty. All accessories included. I bought the Teric to replace my Perdix, but have found that the Perdix is easier for me to read. The Teric is flawless. A couple of weeks ago, after 12...

TFX owners are too busy diving and enjoying themselves, they don't have the time to worry about the color of the exhaust diaphragm.

Port closure late yesterday wiped out hope of a night dive with 3P. Opened this morning wiping out plans for a leisurely breakfast but we had a smooth dive day. Looks closed again later in the day with no traffic seen from Barracuda except for what looked like a small Navy craft bouncing through...

My inclination would be to elongate the slots on the backplate to accommodate the wing. I've done this without a lot of drama with a Dremel, electric drill, and a file. I like to attach the plate and wing together with book screws so an additional hole or two might be needed.

I initially bought a steel plate, found it too heavy to haul around, and traded it on SB Classifieds for an aluminum plate of equivalent quality with someone going the other way. Don't get hung up on which to buy. You can easily swap it out.

On my last couple of dives with the DH I noticed the hoses bouncing around my ears. It was a little annoying, so I ordered some additional rings from ebay to see what I could do. I was tempted to start a thread concerning hose weights and placement. These things seem to be of interest to...

I believe the Kraken shipped with a larger diameter hose than most other DH regulators. I no longer have a Kraken, but the replacement silicone hose on my AquaMaster / Phoenix has an overall OD of ~ 37.5mm. The rings Brian sold for the Kraken were 38mm inside diameter, 6.1mm thick, and weighed...

Check out Wise: https://wise.com/ Easy and inexpensive. I've used them quite a few times without complications.

If @HJW (or anyone else) is not aware of it, there still exists a vast resource of information on Brian's website: Phoenix and Argonaut Specialty Area - Vintage Double Hose Outside of the venturi adjustment, the Argonaut Kraken and the upgraded Phoenix are 95% functionally identical. As years...

From what you've said so far I'm not convinced there's anything wrong with your regulator (outside of the sticky DSV). If you try to judge the breathing characteristics of the double hose compared to a single hose regulator you might be disappointed. There are big differences. Breathing effort...

Yes it will free flow while you are on the water surface as the can dips into the water. This is normal. Unless you can confirm the reg is free flowing on the beach, boat or bench, totally out of the water when you hook it to the tank, we're not getting anywhere. Does the reg free flow when...

You can use any air pressure gauge with the proper precision that you can hook up to your low pressure port . Usually around 15 Bar full scale. A HP gauge will not work. In my experience the DSV mouthpiece O-rings must be heavily lubed to move smoothly. Especially the rectangular one around...

If your Kraken is not free flowing above water, it might be functioning properly, and you are just not used to some unusual properties of the reg. If, while in the water, the mouthpiece is above the level of the metal can. the reg will free flow due to the pressure differential between the depth...

Isn't Cabo a part of Texas?

I just don't dive in the US. Seems to be too much of a hassle for a marginal dive experience. Never had any problem with my age (now 75) in Mexico, Honduras, or Indonesia. "Don't ask. Don't tell." is your best bet.
