They are all excellent regs. The main disadvantage to the Poseidons is
that they are complicated to service and it is difficult to find
qualified persons in some areas. They also no longer have a lifetime
warranty on parts. Zeagle regs work as well under extreme conditions,
and they still have a lifetime parts warranty as long as they are
serviced annually. The zaegles also come environmentally sealed and
don't need the silicone filled boot over one end.
