General discussion what do you use one your deco bottles in colder waters .

In warmer environments the pistons are the preferred deco reg for its easier capability to deal with water intrusion vs the diaphram system. Heading up north with colder waters etc is everyone still following suit?
 
MK17/20/25 on deco bottles. Most “cold” reg issues that divers experience are poor technique (e.g dry breathing).
 
Mk25EVO or Mk17. I’ve seen people use the Mk10, Mk20, Apeks FSR or DST.

grantctobin emphasis a good point.
 
DST or any of the numerous DST clones for everything.
