RLarsen:
In regards to the Zeagle comparison chart, the DS-V is only different by having one more low pressure port than the Flathead Vl ? Why would a diver spend the extra money for the Flathead ?
Thanks

Easier breathing with the FH.
The ZX/ Flathead-VI
The ZX- Flathead VI is the Flagship of Zeagle's regulator line:
* The ZX-Flathead-VI's wide-open internal structure allows for direct and unrestricted airflow through the 1st stage, giving very low breathing resistance, even at great depths and high demands.
* It is very low in profile, barely extending above the tank valve, and places the low pressure hoses directly out to the sides, in a pattern preferred by many divers.
* Zeagles conical precision high-pressure valve provides much greater reliability and service life compared to conventional designs, while improving responsiveness and performance at all breathing rates.
Work of breathing at heavy* demand:
0.91 Joule/Liter
*198' (60M) depth, 750 psi inlet, 62.5 RMV (liters per minute respiratory volume)
The ZX/ DS-V
The ZX/ DS-V regulator outperforms many regulators with outstanding reputations- why? Among many reasons, two stand out:
* It has an internal structure that allows direct airflow through the 1st stage, providing outstanding performance.
* Zeagles conical precision high-pressure valve provides much greater reliability and service life compared to conventional designs, while improving responsiveness and performance at all breathing rates.
Work of breathing at heavy* demand:
1.29 Joule/Liter
*198' (60M) depth, 750 psi inlet, 62.5 RMV (liters per minute respiratory volume)
