I have a 20 year old Poseidon Biscaya Techlift BC that is still in excellent shape . . . but . . . the pull-dump inflator hose has broken. The plastic valve in the shoulder connection has cracked. Because of its age, Poseidon was no help at all when I contacted them for replacement parts.

My thoughts are that it must share thread size with something that is currently available. The only other BC's I have at home are Dive Rite and I know that hose doesn't match because I've tried. Does anybody know if the old Poseidon BC's shared inflator hose thread size with another manufacturer?
 
does the hose not match, or the threads not match? See if you can swap the whole inflator assembly over. Dive Rite uses the nearly universal inflator elbow, but the corrugated hoses themselves are often different. If the whole dive rite assembly will swap over and function, then you can buy a remote exhaust assembly from dive rite and use that.
 
The threads on the DR doesn't match the Poseidon. They are the same size, but different threads.

I would like to just replace the entire hose assembly if I can find one with the same threads.
