Good afternoon,
I have an old (very old) Brownies Third Lung I've used for years (and years and years)... you get the idea .
Anyway, 2 of the regulators were leaking a little water last time we used it so I figured I'd take them in to get serviced/rebuilt.
The guy at the dive shop laughed when he saw them.. they're that old apparently (Dacor).
He quoted me $199 a piece for new regulators (I need 3). My quote went from a $130 rebuild to $600+ in new regulators in 3.1 seconds!!!
My question...
Can I buy a basic ScubaPro regulator like this :
Scubapro R095 Octopus Safe 2nd Stage Scuba Regulator Octo with 36" Hose | eBay
and use it with my brownies? it's half the price of a Brownies regulator and I like the idea of having ScubaPro's.
If it's not worth the time/hassle, I guess I can just pick up 3 new Brownies regs..
Thanks in advance for your help.
