I have an older (about 15+years) model of oceanic regulator/firststage/guages. I can't figure out what model any of it is. The first stage has 2 hp ports (marked 300bar 4500psi) and 4 lp ports, the second is clear plastic reg that sits sideways instead of directly infront of your mouth. The stuff was all bought second hand 15 years ago.
Basically I want to replace the reg (or use it as an octo if it is worth the rebuild) and keep the guages and first stage, and replace those later.
I was hoping someone could help me figure out what kind of first stage it is. Basically whether it is balanced or unbalanced and whether it is worth keeping. I definitely want to keep the guages to use as backup for my wrist computer that I am also trying to decide which type to buy. I have a really old Suunto/Seaquest Solution (that has served well), so am leaning toward a Suunto brand.
I will be taking it all in to be serviced at my LDS, but I am fairly sure they will be trying to sell all new equipment so I was hoping for some information from the board before I decide.
Thanks for any help, Choco
