Servicing Scubapro in bangkok

[lord khram]

The tools are also sort of expensive, with several of them being specific to ScubaPro (such as the regulator cover tool), and if you don't already own a torque wrench, that's a pretty big outlay as well. If I added up the cost of all my tools (including torque wrench), ultrasonic cleaner machine, courses, etc. I'm pretty sure it would come to 30K-40K or maybe more.

I seem to recall having spent around £250 on equipment, admitedly about 5 years ago so maybe costs have increased now, also a few things I did have already, that is around 12500 bt.
Having four regulators that are regularly used, at 4000 - 5000bt per service it wouldn't take long for me to show a significant saving.
Also ever since I have serviced my own have not had one problem with my regs, so added peace of mind that the job is done properly, and the ability to do the servicing at my own convenience.
For the small amount of time taken to service my gear, well worth the effort in my opinion.

To The OP, I read your cost of the regs as the service cost was more than what you paid for them. So ignore point 4. Sounds like your leaning towards option 1. If you decide to go with the rebuild option, if you start now just keeping your eyes open for good deals on the tools I suspect you can do significantly better on those costs than what a previous poster quoted. Take a look on the DIY forum for discussions about rebuilding your own, the value of torque wrenches etc.

I would not bother with a full service yet if they do not need it, just get them inspected, keep them clean and they should be fine
