We have a veo180 swiv navcon with an added quick disconnect. We just flooded our 2nd spg. I have not had a chance to take it to our lds for analysis yet, but was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. I can absolutely guarantee that the reg was not dunked without the dust cap. So how is the water getting in? Just back from a week trip. On the very first dive (read: bone dry start) the wife shows me the gauge and its a quarter full of water. We continued to use it during the week and it often it would appear totally dry out of the water and then while diving fill again. Pressure read true all week, but the temp gauge died and of course I would not use the spg any more.
Is it possible that the QD is introducing water? Could the spg itself have a leak?? The wife is frustrated and wants to make the QD go away since she feels this is the difference in the setup. Can't say I disagree... I use a veo200 in a traditional console and have no issues with my spg in the same period that she has blown 2. Any guesses what's going on here. Again, I guarantee that the dust cap has been on tight before every rinse. Thanks! Mike
