Scubapro G250 HP

[ShipWreck Mike]

I checked my G250HP I bought, I can not get the purge button to twist and lock. Not sure if they made different versions of this reg.

Note: you only turn the purge button a couple of degrees while depressing it about 1/8"

On the S600 (little brother of the G250HP) the two versions differ externally on the size of the cracking pressure adjustment knob. It looks like that knob is a somewhat larger diameter on the older versions. I only have older versions of the S600 and the knob is just a little under 1 inch in diameter.

One of my dive buddies had the S600. He had it free flow 4 times in a row (before and after servicing). On the some of those dives I was with him using a 250V with no problems (we both use MK17 for the water temp and less than clear lake water). He switched to a G250V and has not had any more problems....other than diving with me

That is not a general model problem. It is a tuning problem that any good tech should have no problem fixing. I have almost no freeflow problems with any of the almost 20 scubapro 2nd stages I dive or support for my wife and one daughter. That includes 2 S600 and a G500.

Thanks D_B

I'll check the purge button again.

Well what do you know, it does lock, thanks.
