Subject: Right angle adapters
On  Posieden Odin first stages I'm using a right angle adapter (or 90 
degree) on my right reg 1st to direct the  bc inflator hose to the left side
thus removing a sharp bend.  This allows me to turn the regs on side 
therefore putting all other hoses coming out from the bottom and 
staying neatly behind the wings.  

My questions are: 

1.  Does anyone have any experience with these adapters? 
2.  Are they prone to any problems? 
3.  Do you recommend them or suggest I throw them out.

The only area of possible failure that caught my eye is the swivel 
area - it appears to have a teflon washer and double o-rings to 
prevent leakage.  It doesn't look like it'd fail easily but then I 
haven't had the chance many of you have to put it through the real 
tests.
