Subject: RE:full face
We have machined a fitting that goes in between your hose and a high
pressure gas quick connect.  The reason being, I have not see a fool poof
manifold where there is no way you can not mix gas by accident.

The quick connectors allow you to switch gases FASTER than regulator
switches and there is no way you can switch to the wrong gas unless you do
it on purpose, just like a standard regulator switch.

We have tested it to 300 FSW on Trimix with no problems.

The diver also carries a backup mask and a standard 2nd stage that has a
quick connect so if there is a complete failure of the full face you can
just switch back to standard scuba.
