Dive Rite Power Inflator

[smb1014]

Has anyone used the new Dive Rite power inflator that has the silver grey buttons and the mouth pieceand inflator button on the same side? Any maimtenance issues? Problems?

I want to put one on my Halcyon eclipse...the stainless steel one has too many reported problems.

i have that on my new bp/w and it leaks air when i am inflating my bc, i have called the shop and talked with the head tech there and he said they are having that problem with them, but to bring it in and he will try to fix it, but we will see how it goes, he also said it really isnt a big issue so just my thoughts on it anyway!!!

Mine is about a year old so I dont know if that is "new" or not, but I had a weird problem with the inflator after is was only 25 dives young. Both O-rings in the inflator (two tiny, tiny ones) got what looked like cut, at the same time, making the "O" more like a "C". It caused the bladder to slowly inflate nonstop. Luckily I was able to find someone with replacement O-rings - I was told it is an uncommon size.
