     Donovan, call Jarrod Jablonski for training. We make those scooters. The 
regs are just Poseiden first stages with VX10 second stages (the same as Apex, 
or Zeigle). Otherwise we use Beuchat, Oceanic, and Scuba Pro regs, but in the 
later case you had better have access to parts and know how to reuild
regularly, 
or they are prohibitive. With Beuchat or Oceanic, you may never have to service 
them at all. The Poseidens frequently have bad seats, so you better have spare 
seats , the tools to take the reg apart ( I made mine on a bandsaw), and know 
how to do it (takes less than one minute). I do not have any Beuchat parts, nor 
have I ever taken one apart or had one serviced. I have seen them apart at 
Beuchat, but even on my salt water stuff, which I leave on my boat without even 
rinsing it, I have never had a failure or needed service.
