Apeks egress breathing issue..

[Tim Greaves]

I tested out my Apeks egress 2nd stage over the weekend.. I was at 100ft and switch over from my primary to the egress that on my slung pony bottle..

It seemed a little hard to breath from and I know that I had the dive shop detune it a little but do you all think I need to have it tuned up(cracking pressure more sensative) or does the small size of the egress cause this to be normal?

I reckon you might have had it detuned too much – I have one on my ATX200 Black Pearl as my octo, and it breathes nice and smooth down at 60m.
