I just Purchased this Reg for my wife,thought maybe the rep could tell me a little more about performence and custumer satisfaction of it.
also anyone who has this regulator can chime in to.:D
 
My wife has the same reg setup and she loves it, easy breather (easier than the regulators she used for her OW), seems to be built like a tank...
 
It is basically a delta3 without the venturi adjust. I use one as a back up on my doubles. the delta is the primary. It is a very dependable reg. Easy breather, and environmentally sealed. Is it the one with the dvt? I prefer non dvt but that's me.

Is it the one with the dvt?( yes it is , but i got the reg for a really good price and the DVT feature is not why i purchased this reg) I prefer non dvt but that's me.

The DVT does'nt change the regs performance in any way does it?
It seems like it would be a good thing but it is fairly new to the dive world so i hav'nt heard negative or possitve things about the DVT except if you accidently dump it in a tank of water it's protected.
 
I have 2 GT3s, my dad also owns 2, we love them, they have worked well for us, no issues w/ overbreathing them at depth, the adjustment knob works well.

No it does not seem to. I just don't see it as a worth the extra 100 bucks and it'a another moving part that is not needed if you are careful with your gear.
 
Some of the CDX5 first stages have DVT and some do not. My wife's does not, but I have seen some that do. My oceanic CDX-10 / Delta 4 does have it.
 
The DVT can't be converted to DIN. Something to think about.

This is incorrect. The DVT regs can indeed be converted to DIN. You just will not have the DVT feature anymore. Same kit as for the non dvt regs.
