Does an air transmitter fit on an Apeks DST?

I use a 4" hose it doesn't move at all and hits nothing. I'm guessing from your post you've not actually tried one.

I think I might just try some small stickers indicating the universal symbol for 'nuclear radiation hazard' instead.

Or chlamydia infected device.

Just not the elegant solution I was looking for. Luckily I either handle my own gear or patronize 'experienced' dive ops (live aboards or boutique dive ops) those crew are hopefully way too tenured/experienced to ever dream of using the AI transmitter as a grab handle.

yeah, those medical bio-hazard stickers look pretty scary too!

Generally I'm not too concerned as like you, only I handle my gear but on liveaboards that may not always be the case particularly when the boat boys are swapping/re filling tanks etc while I'm sleeping

Is having the AI transmitter flopping all over the place smacking into your tank and other objects really a good solution ?

6" Hose and the transmitter routes securely underneath the 1st Stage out of the way.
