Apeks ATX200 1/2" port for primary or 3/8" port?

[noshow]

I like what cybordolphin did or suggested...

I used the stock hose for the primary reg in the 1/2" port for my bungeed backup second stage T20. I then purchased a standard 3/8" 7' hose for my primary second stage ATX200.

This works particularly good for me because I am 6'4", 230lbs and when I tried the standard DIR sized length hose for my bungeed backup second stage off the 3/8" port, it was too tight.

Here is a pic of my second stage configuration. The 1/2" port is the one my backup is running off of (T20) and that is the stock hose that came with....

Inverted... the HP ports (SPG), shoots out at an upward angle. But the LP ports fire slightly down.

First stage inverted I could have the SPG (off the HP port pointing slightly skyward ), secondary (bungied) off the 1/2" port, and my BC inflator coming to my left side.

First stage inverted would allow my primary 7 footer and drysuit inflator coming to my right side.

Hmmmmm...... seems like that would work.

I spose I will have to see if inverting makes much difference. I don't know if I like the SPG hose heading up then back down as it will be ending the lowest of all hoses.
