OMS H valve

[BIGJC]

I have an OMS mainfold and am looking to makes some H valves, do I have to buy the OMS adaptors or would another, less expensive brand be ok??

I doubt it. The OMS uses that funky face seal design instead of the normal barrel O-ring design. Right now, I'm trying to confirm if my Genesis dual outlet adaptor will fit into a Sherwood, Dive Rite, Scuba Pro, or Sea Elite modular K-valve. I'm betting it will. I'd take apart my doubles to find out, but they're full .

Yikes, that's about what a complete, brand new SeaElite H valve (both parts, either a 200 BAR with yoke conevrter or 300 BAR setup) costs from Diver's Supply (http://www.divers-supply.com/). They're in their paper catalog, not the online one.

Roakey,I got 2xlp95 with the manifold for $300,the H-valves were sitting in a buddies garage unused.I don't have a lotta OMS stuff for that reason.Living next to cave country gets you lotsa bahgains as people discover deep,dark underground ain't for them.
