Dan, I mean reliable as in reliable as usual. When divers over forty make it through deep dives using technology that was developed over 20 years ago we feel pretty good about it. Your Scuba pro is an extremely reliable unit as is all open circuit equipment. After all the technology behind your Scuba Pro regulator is much older than that of the Mark 155 if you discount the prehistoric rebreathers. Cis Lunar has the benefit of the Mk155 technology since that is after all what it is based upon plus some tekkie doodads added on. BTW, hope all goes well during Bertha, hang on to that scuba pro becasue you might just neede it shortly.. Stay safe.
