    Help identifying a regulator

    Hello, I got this first stage regulator and wonder if anyone can identify it? It was connected to Mares second stages and the yoke plastic cap says Mares. But I can't seem to find the name of it. Can you help identify it? M

    Question ScubaPro G260 or S620Ti?

    Hi! I am finally biting the bullet and investing in a good regulator. I’m already set on buying the MK19 EVO. I’m going back and forth on the second stage option: G260 or S620Ti? I’ve seen a general preference for the G260 but I’m worried about the bulkiness and the weight of it. Is jaw fatigue...

    Question Light tec reg : Tecline R4/Tec2 Vs Tecline R5/Tec Vs Apeks XL4+ ?

    Hi, I am in the market for a set of regulators for light technical application. My budget is quite tight, but the Tecline R4 and R5 with Tec 2 second sage seems to be at a reasonable price point for me. However, I’m not sure which one to pick. Both of them seem to work great in cold water, but...

    Question Ultrasonic Cleaners vs HCL acid?

    Hey Folks So I am a few weeks away from servicing my regulators - 2 1st stages and 3 2nds. I was looking at purchasing HCL acid but confused about grades and concentration to use. The classroom taught me to create a solution of 10% HCL by adding the right measure of HCL to a measured volume of...

    Hi All, Have 2x Hollis 500se second stages and the corresponding DC7 first stage. I used these for a while and they worked fine, but I have far too many regs these days and they haven't been touched in probably 2 or 3 years at this point, getting dusty. Work when hooked up, but they should...

    A question for the reg techs out there.. Recently I had a hollis regulator serviced and everything seems fine except if I turn both 2nd stage adjustments(venturi and knob) to the full + it will immediately freeflow from the 2nd stage after purging. When you pressurize the reg even with both...

    Regulator replacement

    I have an old Dacor scuba regulator and the first stage diaphragm is leaking. All the second stages, hoses, and gauges work, but air is getting lost a lot quicker. I’ve taken it to many dive shops that tell me they won’t even touch them for liability reasons and because they don’t make parts...

    Advice Needed on Equipment

    Hey! I’m new to diving, and just purchased this lot of equipment from someone who inherited it and knows nothing of scuba. I paid $200 for the lot. They all look to be in good shape, and from my understanding have only been used in the Great Lakes. All of the first stage regulators are DIN...

    Question Should I replace my SPG with my new Shearwater Transmitter?

    Hello everyone! First post in the forums btw! I have my 1st stage which has only one HIGH PRESSURE and I am really hesitant about replacing my SPG totally with the transmitter I got (swift). What do you think about this? Is it safe? I am absolutely crazy or it is an understandable risk? Thanks!

    Yoke Replacement

    I have a Dacor regulator system and there is a strong leak out of the yoke. The second stages still work fine but because I can’t get parts for that company anymore, can I take the hoses off the old yoke and put them on a different brand yoke?
