While we're on the subject of Poseidon regs, would anyone care to expand on
the claim that their upstream design is a liability.

I have taken a class in their maintainance (obtaining the preverbial
"little knowledge") and it seems to me that the second stage should still
free flow in an IP overpressure situation. From what I can see the pilot
valve would be overcome, open and allow the "sock" to open as well, causing
freeflow rather than no-flow. Any restriction in flow that might cause a
further build up of pressure would be releived by the inline LP hose relief
mechanism.

Does anyone have direct experience with Odins in an IP overpressure
situation? Or anything else that might illuminate the extent of this
possible weakness in the Odin/Maxims performance?

BTW I find the little ice slivers refreshing, certainly eliminates dry mouth.
