There's no option on there site of whether or not you want din or yoke. I added it in the shipping comments but I don't know if that'll work or not. I just ordered a xtx50 because it says low stock but I want to make sure I don't get a yoke. Anyone have any ideas? I'm assuming there closed for the holiday weekend so calling is not an option.
 
Well this is the photo for the XTX50 as seen on LeisurePro, so no, it probably isn't DIN.

I am not sure if you are committed to Leisure to purchase your Apeks XTX 50 but I bought my Apeks regs from Scubastore. Online Scuba gear and Scuba equipment shop.. They offer DIN and yoke 1st stages and they have shipped pretty quickly. Not sure if the holidays will delay that at all. You might want to consider them if you want a DIN 1st stage Apeks reg. I also bought the DIN to yoke adapter. Works well and useful if you take your regs to places that only have yoke valved tanks.

WOW that's cheap! I've never heard of this place before. Are they reliable? I can get out of my order at LP
 
I hope our US holiday wouldn't have too much of a holdup on DiveInn since they are located in Spain. :D
 
EH, I thought LP used to have a function under "my accounts" to cancel orders not shipped, I don't see it so I'm going to have to wait until sunday and hope they're open like their phone message says. I still can't believe they wouldn't have it in DIN. From what I've read on their site looks like they want you to buy the DIN converter for an extra $60. Still cheaper than my LDS lol.
 
If they have a regulator available in more than one fitting, it would have come up in an option window, and they would have made you choose before the order processed.
 
Thats one of the main reasons I never buy regs from LP anymore. They never had DIN in stock and wanted to charge for the conversion. Of course I only buy scubapro so I dont know if thats true for all their brands. I switched everything to DIN a long time ago so its pointless for me to invest in yoke, LP should start offering it either way IMHO.
 
LP generally only stocks yoke fittings since they are more popular... ScubaToys can usually match their prices and carries both yoke and din first stages for almost everything

They have been very reliable for me. I have used them for over 10 years with great success. I have bought at least 10 Apeks regs from them and they have always arrived ontime and in great condition. I have no complaints and would recommend them to anyone interested in Apeks regs in particular. I personally would avoid the DIN converters and just get a DIN 1st stage with a yoke adapter.
