     Fred,
     I had Mares Navy regulator couple of years ago and it worked fine 
     after purchase. But after the first service,, I experience the same 
     type of problem your describing plus getting water in the second 
     stage. I tried another tech, but still he could no get it back to the 
     original performance. Button line finally called Mares USA, and found 
     a factory tech that got the reg. performing as good as new (mailed it 
     to Mares USA in Colorado). Try calling Mares USA 1-800-874-3236 x297 
     Linda Jehle. 
     
     Good Luck,
     
     - Carl

I was wondering if anyone has any comments about the Mares Voltrex 
regulator.  I have two. One seems to like to free flow a lot more than the 
other.  (It is my secondary).
     
I was told that it did have a tendency to free flow, but the frequency  in
the one with the problem is quite a bit higher than the other; like every time 
I jump into the water.  The other night, I did a gentle roll into a pool and it 
misbehaved.   So I switched to it, (the other reg was fine), breathed on it
for a few minutes, and switched back to the other reg.  The massive free 
flow was now gone, but it still "bubbled" a bit.
     
A little more info - it has had regular maintenance, but is not new  - about 
3 years old.  A question may be asked about  the quality of the
maintenance, but the technician has a stellar reputation, so I don't think 
that poor maintenance is the problem.
     
Anyway - thanks in advance for your comments / help.
     
Cheers - 
     
Fred K.
