I have my reliable Aqua Lung i550 that has a cable (no BT), so I would like to add a quick disconnect to the high-pressure line.

I see Scuba Pro and XS Scuba make an "add-on" HP quick disconnect.



I am not sure if I need to replace the Aqua Lung HP hose, or just connect these devices in line (near the console)

Appreciate any input. Thanks

Can you just imagine it, you know that sound a loud ppfft when your airline disconnects
and you're following your console on that 45degree downward trajectory with your eyes
 
We use the ScubaPro model on my wife's console. It just screws in on the end of the hose. Caution: Make sure there isn't a long "neck" to the console or it will be up inside the console and useless.

I can't remember if it needs a second air spool or not....

a) in 20+ years of quick connects I never had one disconnect on me, under pressure it's close to impossible to do that
b) it call only sail way if you are one of those divers dragging their stuff through the reef, as the computer is secured to th eBCD like all other danglies
