I took his class and highly recommend it if you want a really in depth (:wink:) understanding of how regs work as well as the practical stuff. The typical one day manufacturers' course is focused on safely following their service manual rather than understanding why you are doing anything.

Also the service manuals that @rsingler wrote are simply the best that are currently available for any regulator. IMO, it's worth reading over one of them for any tech or even non-techs who are interested in regs. There's a bunch of stuff from proper cleaning to servicing hoses to tips on tuning barrel second stages that are not found elsewhere.


BTW, don't forget the Deep 6 Excursion. If you don't need the swivel or 5th (down facing) LP port, it will save you some weight, size and $140 for the standalone stage (OK, really $100 over the long term since the Signature price includes the first service).
I’ve looked over the D6 service documentation, it’s nice and through.

I want to take @rsingler’s class down the road. For regs, Scubapro’s G260/MK19 is and D6 Signatures are on that short list when that time rolls around.
