Question DGX 'Stainless Steel Braided Flex Hose' - Anyone try one?

[Mobulai]

I love bugs, the VW ones. I had a souped up bug convertible, a Karmon Ghia convertible and a hot rod hippie window van, all long gone.

Your taste in cars matches that of regs :chefs kiss:

I have had 3 of these short stainless steel braided hoses on my first stages to connect to wireless transmitters for over a year now. No fraying, no issues with rubbing or anything else. I had a relatively new 6in rubber hose pop a leak and it is a known issue for short rubber hoses - thus stainless steel wrapped. This is what DGX recommends now for short high pressure hoses.

This has appeared in china for half a year now, it is manufactured by WMD, well-known OEM factory.
I think it's meant for commercial diving.

This may be an acceptable use, not handled a lot and pretty much out of the way.

Brush some 50-50 water-phosphoic in there

I also tried to let gravity "seep in" some of that into the threads; worked out nicely -- and that was definatly a plumbing hose

que the waterworks

Tesla is a POS, I imagine they dream of how they can please daddy musk and look like something other than a 70s computer render or a used up soap bar
Volvos dream of Midsommar dances and squirt lil bit of oil as well while being able to find their way on their own, and treck after Jeeps
Personally I’d take a 76 vw bug over any other chariot, it’s the equivalent of “can take cover off of 2nd underwater” for me.
Still looking for one tho

As a retired old (neo gen) hippy/yuppy I have no intention of wrapping a steel hose around my very hairy neck as well, got enough trouble with hoods pulling my hair as it is — but the engineer in me wants to know how they fair in water and how rusty they get
(i know of a local to here company [BadManWorks] that bought a tesla just to blow up the battery to make theirs better/as good, so the bad end goal still justified the fun)

On a more practical topic.. I think I wanna hydrodip that 190 cover to make it less ugly on the 250; I might come with questions in a few weeks time

After a month surface interval where the weather was awful here in South Florida - I've purchased a 40" hose and will be diving it this Friday (weather allowing) in DGX's "Streamlined OW configuration"
