Hi,
I am looking at two APEKS 1st stages for my 100% cylinder and would appreciate some feedback:
- DS4 (environmentally sealed), somewhat compact
- US4 (not sealed), lighter / a bit more compact than the DS4
^^ Use only in warm water!
Since since / weight is a bit of concern (I travel hand carry only and bringing 4 1st stages does not help), I wonder if there is any reason to NOT take the lighter US4. Please no discussion why APEKS - my other regs are all APEKS and I want to stick with them.
Thank you for your feedback.
