Which regs allow you to switch the hose to the left side?

[dboddy]

I'm in the market for a 2nd stage that will allow me (or a qualified tech) to switch the hose from the right side to the left side. I know that several of the Apeks have this ability.

Any others?

Thanks!

Poseidon's all vent to the side. But I think their hoses use a special size fitting. And you may need their first stage for it to work correctly. My buddy has some adapters that he uses at times with his - not sure of the details.

And I think Aqualung makes one, but that may just be an octo..

Scubapro regs are all capable of switching from right to left, have been for quite some time.

I believe that is only the R-series that switches (and the discontinued pilot).

I stand corrected, you are right, just the R295, R190 & R395.

I'm considering it for sidemount.

Why is that the real question? Is there something wrong with using a left handed reg?
