Conshelf 14

Probably the number and size of the ports.

Late Connie XII and early Connie XIV are identical AFAIK, 1 hp and 3 lp ports. There are some sticker changes yellow vs. silver done around 1978. IMHO value for the XII and XIV Connies should be about the same. Last production Connie 14s had the ergonomic exhaust tees from the plastic second stage Connies (20, 21, Pro Diver, Royal, SE, SE2, etc).

I love all my Connies, my AMF/Voit/Swimaster MR-12 IIs, and my MkV R109s. Probably done more dives with the Connies than the others combined, but in a perfect world, I'd be out every day with at least one of each of these three: USD, AMF and SP.

Hello there, may I know did any of you currently used a swivel for the marine brass Conshelf XIV second stage? If yes, Can you recommend any? I know that the OmniSwivel standard one fits the 2nd stage, however I don't have any dealer nearby and shipping is quite expansive.

Shipping always hurts, I feel you, I live in Japan. From DGX if you can get an order together that totals $250 shipping is free, that's usually what I try and do.

I use the fixed 70 degree ones but want to get the Kirby Morgan ones as apparently they are very well made.
