Question Poseidon Xstream or Apeks XTX50?

[tbone1004]

Apologies for the thread hijack. I dive HOG D1's (I believe to be an Apex clone) and the only significant knock on them is that the turret has only a single O-ring which can make them unsuitable as a stage bottle.

Does the XTX50 have the same "feature"?

they're fine on stage bottles, just leave them pressurized and check them every once in a while, though I do prefer the DS4 form factor since it makes them noticeably easier to handle in the water with less weight at the valve.

I've got both DST/XTX50 and Jetstreams.
I'd make you a really good deal on the freshly serviced Jetstreams. Although I can't argue they are better built and I don't mind the hose routing for sidemount at all, I just don't like the way the bubbles exit.
