Hi,

    I recently took my backup reg in to be serviced - a Scubapro Mk 10
and G250, and was later told it wasn't worth servicing - it was too
corroded inside the first stage and the 2nd.  I bought it 2nd hand
(never do that again!) a year and 1/2 ago, had it serviced then and put
about 150 dives on it in a cold saltwater environment - Canada, west
coast.   I always hosed it off and soaked it in cold freshwater after
every dive until the next one a few days later.   Has anyone seen this
before - is keeping the reg constantly wet at fault or does this happen
with age?   Local shop technician said this is why diaphram regs are
better in our waters.


Thanks,


Steve.
