Are the hoses on the Poseidon cyklon and triton compatible with each other?
 
Thanks
 
A few pics

Those hoses look a lot like Cyklons. I read that you can adjust the Triton IP to run. Cyklon second. Maybe a phone call to a vendor that sells Cyklon hoses like Dive Gear Express could help?
 
I actually bought the hose adapter for a cyklon from DGE and it wouldn’t fit because the diameter of the adapter was to big. The regulator wouldn’t allow it to screw on completely. I’ll post a pic later.
 
That looks like the hose on my Cyklon, had an interesting time figuring out the hose, and the adapters that let me use the standard hoses I already have. As far as I've seen in my search, there are two configurations, and that is not the jetstream.

Here is a pic of the adapter. I’ll post another pic of it partial attached to the triton when I get off work.

Here a pic of the adapter attached to the triton 2nd stage. Notice how the adapter for the cyklon is just to big for the triton but it’s able to screw on.

Hate to say it, but the shape of the second is the issue, the adaptor would work otherwise. I doubt if you will find one commercially made that will work. If you know a hobby machinist, you could have him turn down the offending area, or a method I have been known to use, a file and time.

The alternative is getting a Poseidon hose.



Good luck

Bob
