Got a few month old hose that I just began to notice a leak in a specific spot. I tried to show with my finger on the picture where I'm seeing the leak, just below the nut that screws into the 1st stage. O ring and treads look great and it seats well. I can't replicate the leak in my bathtub, I only notice it at about 20+ feet deep, very very slow tiny stream of bubbles coming from that spot where my finger is just below the nut. Hose dead?

Sounds like a defective hose crimp job. Maybe the mfgr will make good on it.
 
It was from DRIS which tends to have good customer service. I'll try to give them a call when they are open after the holidays. It's a pretty new hose.
 
DRIS will make it right, period. That bunch up there is about as squared away, when it comes to customer service, as it gets.
