Another James79 accomplishment, the AIR1 dive/predive switch, this AIR1 had an old type lp seat but since I had it open I put a poppet with the 104 oring seat in it, it breaths so nice it could almost serve and an iron lung. The fit of the screws is having me lean toward it not needing the external sticker or any other seal, if you need an oring replacement on the switch this removes the fear of breaking the switch clips, sort of a hybrid pilot/AIR1 set up.

For anyone excited by this, I'm waiting for responses from guinea pigs (I mean beta testers) before I offer these up for sale. So far the design looks good, but I'm waiting on in water testing to be sure I didn't set the main o-ring groove too deep, and that o-ring sealing the screws is sufficient to keep it water tight.
As Lex says, though, colors are only limited by the filament I have (currently blue, black, red, and orange ABS. I need to get my PETG print settings ironed out and then I'll have clear and translucent red as well).
 
blue... like SP Blue?

Ironically, I only own scubapro gear in chrome... So I don't know? Attached is a picture of one I printed in the blue I have.
