I would appreciate a little info on Scubapro's D400 and Mk10 please.( Probably from DA ;) )

When did production of the D400 start, and when did the Mk10 production end, also was the Mk10 and Mk10+ sold at the same time, or as a seperate ( like the Mk20 changed over to the Mk25 ) ?


I'm asking this as I've just got myself a D400 and Mk10. If the date on the hose is to be believed (and the hose is the original) then it is from early/mid 1994. Would this make it a D400 or a D350 upgrade? It has the early straight lines running along the outer case. The Mk10 doesn't have the SPEC boot, but a black plastic band with ambient pressure holes in around the outside. It does have the later black knob on the A clamp not the silver" wingnut", and it does say Mk10 on the end. I haven't looked inside yet so can't see what it is definately. It is obviously late production though ( or an upgrade ), I know they did do TIS kits for the Mk10 later on, would they have been standard about 94?

The filter in the 1st stage also appears "bronze" in colour, and is of the older much finer style than the newer slightly stringy silver type would this be correct? I'm presuming it hasn't been serviced for some time (It will get one!), it does seem to be in very good condition however.

Any info greatly appreciated. Thanks :D
