Oral Inflator

[av8er23]

As I am looking around at some bc's I am noticing that some do not have an oral inflator. Is this a critical and important item?

Sounds kinky to me............ Yes, it is indeed critical. What you would do if your auto inflate button fails. You are at 100fsw, and just dumped too much air? Decide to surface (equipment failure) and now is negatively buoyent??

It is critical to me. I use mine more often than the power inflator, and would feel very uncomfortable without the ability to inflate orally even if I didn't have the habits I do.

Which BC's were you looking at, specifically?

Personally, I like my oral inflator very much.

You're kidding, or maybe you didn't understand them? I've seen one I didn't understand.

I would not use one without an oral inflator...

It is very important. It could be your bail out in case of Power Inflator Failure. Are you sure they realy have NO oral inflator?

Are you confusing the alternate air source/oral inflator combination and the regular oral inflator?

Thanks for sharing that.

Hey, it's strictly a business relationship

I don't believe the Mares Morphos Pro has an oral inflator.
