Charles, 

did you hear of any problems?  If so, I'd like to hear about them too, 
background of the incidents too.  Plse post a summary of responses.

As for the regs, no problems for mine and wife's.  Both rigs are 2.5-3yrs
old.  Mine goes thru 2-3 pool sessions a week, 2-4 o/w dives a week, and 
during the season, about 6-8 short trips of 6-8 dives each.  1st stage is 
the balanced piston version.  Regs are serviced annually (if it makes a 
difference here).  Of course, I don't usually fiddle with the flow 
adjustment, and most of the dives are less than 120ft.

Lawrence
