I am purchasing my first BCD and wanted to also get Atomic's SS1 safe second but there seems to be a problem with the routing of the quick disconnect hose and the Sea Quest Pro QD+ corrugated hose. Unlike Sea Quest's safe second, Air Source, the SS1 doesn't come with a corrugated hose and you have to use your power inflators hose. Without changing anything you have to route the quick disconnect hose on the outside (away from the diver) of the corrugated hose to attach it then under the corrugated hose to the inside to make the connection with the SS1. My LDS suggests turning the corrugated hose upside down which would allow the quick disconnect hose to run down the inside of the corrugated hose. I am not sure if this is making any sense to anyone. If anyone has this setup (SS1 on a Sea Quest BCD), I would be interested to hear how it is working out or if there are any other alternatives besides going with Sea Quest's Air Source.
