I've seen that Y valve on a tank, but never without, so that is pretty interesting that it has two dip tubes. Does it really have independent air paths?
Yes, at least the Beuchat version of the Y-valve does.
 
First of all I am NOT a DIR person. Them preferring an Y over an H is a mystery to me as with an H you can shutdown a regulator set independent of the other, however a Y only allows the whole system either on or off.
Not correct for the Beuchat Y-valve. Which Y-valve are you referring to?
 
Yes. Is it too late to correct misinformation?
Seeing as how the misinformation was already corrected in post #3, 13.5 years ago at the time of the original question, and the person you are asking hasn't logged in to this site in over 10 years, I would hazard to say in this case you are a bit late. :wink:
