MK15 opinions

[jdvaughn]

I was wondering what everyone thought about the mk15 and if you use one how do you like it and how reliable is it?

...well, I've not dove any Scubapro regs, but I understand that the Atomic Aquatics 1st stages are pretty much copies of the MK15 ( Atomic was founded by a pair of Scubapro engineers ) and I've been very pleased/impressed with my Atomic B1, so I'd guess your MK 15 would be fine assuming you have access to quality maintaince/repair services and take care of your gear...... I've got an environmentally sealed 1st stage on my Atomic to keep the innards clear of 'muck' as well.

I love mine, but it is a little bigger than the MK10.

EVERY first stage is a good recreational diving rig if maintained

Mk 15 regulator.. or Rebreather?

I know a few folks over at rebreatherworld.com dive the Mk 15 rebreather =) From what I gather, the rebreather takes a bit of mechanical knowhow and quite a bit of money.. since parts are scarce.. including the inconel sphere pressure vessels it uses for oxygen and diluent.

Takecare,

After checking you other posts, you mean the regulator =) please ignore my last post unless you are interested in rebreathers in the future

take care,
