First yes I have read through quite a few posts about swivels and have mostly seen divers talking about swivels with a central screw to hold the unit together my question is not about those types of swivels. I have had bad experiences with them leaking, blowing out, and coming apart.
I am looking at XS Scuba's swivel adapter and I am looking for opinions from those who have actually used this product or have been on a dive with a buddy and a problem happened in front of you; not looking for I heard this I heard that. From what I can see there is less chance of a problem arising with this model compared to the 360 swivels.
The other option which I have not tried yet but am considering is the xs scuba 110 degree adapter.
I am considering purchasing one of the items as I have jaw issues and become fatigued fairly quickly, I have a 1.5m hose on my primary but this only helps partially. I have used many and still use the polished chrome plated brass generic 360 swivels as this is all that is readily available near me and have had issues with them and want to get away from this product due to its unreliability.
