I was wondering if the octopus MV is balanced or unbalanced. I have heard that an un-balanced octo is preferred, because of improved reliability. Is this true?
 
Fiji,

The MV octopus is an unbalanced octo. This octo is very reliable, with fewer parts there is less to go wrong. This octo is a proven product and has been in the field for years. Many like this octo because it is small, streamlined, does not have an up or down allowing for multiple hose routing options and also ease of passing to a diver in an out of air situation.
