I love doing long (70-100 minutes) shallow dives but the dry mouth isn’t fun.
I noticed that Sherwood advertises the MRV on the Oasis Pro. I also read that people have found that metal regs in general seem better for moisture.
I mostly dive in the Bay Islands and Mares seems to be the easiest brand to service there. I understand that Sherwood is mostly US-based so one of my concerns is ease of service abroad (some future dive goals on my list include the Philippines and the Red Sea).
The compact size of the metal Mares proton and the fact that it is Mares is appealing to me, but I wonder how serviceable it will be since it is quite old by now (assuming I can find a reasonably priced second hand one in good working condition).
But if the specially built MRV is really better on the Oasis, then I wonder how serviceable it will be around the world and how ‘old’ of a used model would still have that feature and make sense to possibly buy now.
I’m also glad for any other recommendations/relevant knowledge!
Ty!
