A change of heart, Scubapro D420

The D?

Perfect

Perfect

I'm heading there too. Now I've adjusted trim a fraction to compensate for narrow exhaust T it's much less distracting although still super keen to try @James79 creation.

Hopefully it gets to Lex tomorrow or Tuesday so we can refine it... I'm sure enough that it isn't right yet that I only sent 1 side!

Does "look" nice. At first glance looks like a MK25, they say it's been "slimmed down" and "updated", I guess you can all read.

I'm interested to know if it still has the large ip swing a la the MK17.

It is indeed a beautiful thing with exceptional performance...

@rsingler any closer to testing a D as a back up? I guess I could try mine but now it's working beautifully I dare not touch it.

No, I won't be diving for a couple weeks at this rate. Grab one of your beautiful Conshelfs for a primary, throw your D on your other hose and see if it behaves itself with the Pre-dive switch on.
Better yet, add a tenth, to 1.3-1.4", and turn on the Pre-dive. That way, if it misbehaves, we'll know it's an issue.
If it does well, then we know it'll work when (by our standards) it's slightly detuned. Next dive bring it back toward 1.2 and check again.
You're diving more than I am right now, unfortunately.

Ok Rob, I'll do that, I'm going out this Sunday for a couple of dives, I'll up cracking slightly and see how it behaves. I'll shake it about a bit and see what happens. A bit scared to go from the D to a Conshelf lol. I'll report back on my findings.

I think it will be fine without de tuning, just makes sure the mouthpiece is down.
