Interesting how those who use the necklace, usually agree that they wouldn't want it any other way regardless of how they use it (as primary or secondary), yet it never seems to get promoted in OW courses.

You are either getting completely BS'd by the supplier you called OR there is a misunderstanding in what you want/they offered. I think there is a misunderstanding.

Dive Gear Express is selling 7' regulator hoses for $29.95. Is there something odd about the Atomic attachment that requires a custom hose?
I agree - why the swivel?Wondering why you need a swivel? I dived for 7 years without one and used a 7 ft hose, didn't see the need for one.
Again, I agree and do the same -- use a 360 swivel on both sides. But that has to do with hose routing specific to SM. For a BM single tank, with a bungeed necklace and 7' primary hose, I have never needed a swivel on either side.Now that I sidemount, I use swivels (or some use a 90 degree adaptor, but that's specific to sidemount, sidemount does have variations for sure).
