What is the Easiest Breathing/Maintenance Free Reg

[Bob3]

... HORRIBLE distribution and parts availability ...

That was true for the prior US distributor, it's completely turned around 180° now.
Viking will get orders out the same day if you catch them early enough, ( by noon, most of the time) and will ship any flavor UPS you want.

... who doesn't work on them themselves (unlike Bob3)

Heck, I haul my regs down the street a few blocks to my local shop, they have excellent techs there & all the spiffy tools, (like a Magnahelic for checking the cracking pressure). They do a much more comprehensive job than I do. (I'm the kind of guy that uses his thumbnail for a spark plug gapping tool). :tease:

It's a good idea to let the parts seat in & then re-adjust anyway, this is something that should be done on all regs, as is keeping the innards clean & free of hair, potato chips, etc.

Besides, take a look at Poseidon's new 1st stage, ya just can't help but fall in love with the sheer beauty of its design: http://www.dyk-brand.se/images/xstream1.jpg

This 1st stage (I predict) will become the most copied in years to come.

If you're going on vacation, wait to have your reg serviced until after you get back. Many (if not most) reg problems happen as a result of sloppy workmanship. This holds true for all regs, not just Poseidon.

Hey taat2d,
I just thought I would tell you I received one of two Poseidon Xstream Durations That I had on order, I must say it sure is purdy....... I won't be able to use it for a few weeks and by then hopefully my other will be here too. I wouldn't hesitate to much on ordering one, I have three SP MK25 & S600 and don't get me wrong they are an excellent reg and I know I will here some noise about this but more and more it's seems to be like a cult following....... Maybe the margin is better at the LDS who knows. I also have Mares regs and have not had any problems with them. I wanted these for deeper dives, even though I set my SP's up for cold water in my opinion they always seemed like they were just on the verge of a free flow.

Didn't you mother teach you it's not nice to tease???

You're making me very very jealous.

But seriously, I hope you enjoy them. And if you get bored with one of the send it my way I'll keep it company.
