How long do you think you'll be presenting tonight?

 

[rsingler]

Hour to an hour and a half depending upon questions.
That said, the last one ran three hours, lol!

You do so very much for this site; take valuable time out of your life -- and I really hate to be critical; but you really missed the boat for not including the highly-regarded regulator brand, HiMISS, on that formidable test list of yours.

Just saying -- 15.54, well spent . . .

Thank you Rob, very interesting.

Thanks for all your time and efforts so we could geek!

I suspect that the radial fins, inside Deep 6 exhaust tee, are just to strengthen the plastic.

Rob,

Great information. It is nice to see that the results are essentially regulators are fairly equal (my conclusion) which is what I expected. The servicing/tuning is key.

Rob,

Outstanding information, and as always, continually expanding our fascination and knowledge on regulator savvy! A big Mississippi thank you for all your time, energy, and efforts for the scuba diving community.

I love this stuff, thanks Rob.

Well at the top left is one of my CCR Bailouts with the exact internals as the HiMISS
as a matter of fact it's just a HiMISS second stage screwed to the bottom of the DSV

just an unbalanced second stage valve

Well fancy that, an unbalanced second stage valve like the Conshelf XIV at top right

missed the boat
