Apeks Reg Left/Right intake swap -where did this come from?

[GiantSeaCucumber]

Yes, when I block, it doesn't work. I think it's good now. I will throw it on a tank and see what happens. Thank god it's for a side mount setup so if it goes to hell, I still will be okay. I needed to swap this for a class I am taking. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! <3

That is the stop pin for the adjustment knob so that it cannot be turned out of the housing in use.

Awesome; enjoy the class and happy bubbling

Pros don't need to dig out a manual to confirm suspitions

What? Why do you need to swap it? Are you using a short hose on the left cylinder so it's not looped around your neck?
And if the stage "goes to hell," you are not okay. You just have one reg left to get to the surface and nothing for a buddy unless you buddy breathe.
Before you start swapping it, talk to the class instructor. He or she may have other ideas about your configuration.

Not recreational diving. Not worried about a buddy. And I did talk to my instructor and this is the setup for the skills I am learning/working on. Leave it at that because I'm not going to go into a drama fest on Scubaboard.

Honestly I’m really interested to know why as well, intrigued to see how the hose config would look like

Is that for a stage/ deco bottle on your right side so it can go around your neck maybe?

Check DMs.

Nemrod is correct. Keep unscrewing adjuster and without that pin in place it'll come out and right into your hand, likely balance chamber, spring and poppet too.

The instructor mandated that you have a reversed reg for SM?
