Long time Sherwood fan but have nothing but problems with my current gear. Have an SR2 setup. 1st stage was already replaced because the HPP were too shallow (kept blowing my transmitter 0-ring). I dive 8-10 dives per month in salt water. Reg is always rinsed well and serviced every year. I have had issues with the second stages free flowing previously because of corrosion issues in the 1st stage. Servicing always managed that.
This time, the damage may be beyond repair. Shop is still trying to rescue it but the metal may be pitted. They suggested the shop I dive with may not have great air (moisture in the air). I checked with the shop (no issues not surprisingly) but also checked with many other regulars who dive with them twice as much as I do with no issues - I don't think its that.
Anybody seeing similar things or have a suggestion? I am also on my third Amphos computer in 2 years. Their customer service is top notch but reliability...hmmm. In contrast, my 25+ yr old Blizzard reg keeps ticking on with no issues.
