I sent her a PM asking her the same question last week. She said that due to price increases from the manufacturer she will not be getting in anymore enviro kits for these.

You want an enviro kit for your argon reg? Yeah, you don't need one.

I use one as an argon reg and it works great. I almost feel bad using it for that because these are really nice regs. I use a second one as a stage reg and like it at least as much as my Mares and Apeks first stages (even better if you factor in cost).

It doesn't exactly get "cold" here in North Carolina, but I couldn't imagine why you would need an enviro kit on an argon reg. You shouldn't be flowing that much gas through it.
 
thanks ... i guess my concern is moot since most believe free flow wont be an issue if you're only tapping in a little at a time? got it.


also if you are going to use it for DS inflation, I suggest that you lower the IP to around 90-100psi.. This will limit how quickly the gas can be added to your DS.
