Stefano,
My experience is that the Jetstream is a harder to freeze than the Cyklon 
or the Apeks TX50. 
The Jetstream is very good at shooting ice down your throat when cold. 
This is a bit uncomfortable, but you know that the regulator will 
continue to work.

One thing to remember with the Jetstream is to make shure it is dry after 
rinsing, or even better rinse when pressurised, otherwise the regulator 
may freeze when the tank is opened.
