DIR setup and brands... ????

Looks suspiciously like an Eclipse. Isn't DIRzone just Halcyon gear with a different logo?

FWIW - My Oxycheq, Halcyon, and DSS wings are all DIR-compliant right out of the box.

SB - 16" is pretty standard for doubles wings. Most DIR-compliant singles wings come with a 13" inflator hose.

Some wings come with 24" inflator hoses, some also come with pull dumps. Those are not DIR-compliant. But inflator hoses are easily removed and replaced.

Bob,

DIR Zone is imported into the US under a different label, but it's not Halcyon gear.

What's considered to be an "excessively long inflator hose"? The one on my Agir 38lbs doubles wing is ~16 inches.

I like my inflator hose to be a bit longer. With stages and deco bottles, it gets crowded on the left hand side. Inflating/deflating (and yes I do deflate via hose in caves when coming out of high flow narrow verticles) takes a bit of time (trying to grab the inflator), not an issue, jus an annoyance. So a slightly longer hose makes it easier to grab and do your thing.

Is it DIR? I dunno, but it works for me.
