Comfo-Byte for Apeks question.

Thanks Geo7. My question revolves around wanting to know what is what. Liked your thinking though.

The AL comfobite is a slightly smaller size so which one fits better for you depends a bit on your jaw width

AL comes in two sizes - small and standard.

Yes, personally don't like the Apeks ones either.

Thanks for that info I did not know that.

Zef, thanks for doing that research, very helpful indeed.

@Marie13 apeks does too for the black ones, but the dimensions are a smidge different hence why they aren't the same part number

Wow, that's brilliant, thanks!

Attached are some pics I took a while ago while trying to figure out what to order from Buddhasummer (I might not have all of these anymore).

The big bore Apeks mouthpiece in the pics is the RA117137.

The clamp on the top is the latest Scubapro quick release, and the one on the bottom is the standard Aqualung clamp.

Geo7 thanks for the pics.
