Hi Max,

I'm afraid that I don't have the same definition of a K valve as you do.  As=
=20
I understand it, a K valve is a yoke valve for a single tank, not simply any=
=20
single tank valve that doesn't have a 500 psi reserve feature.  The name=20
comes from the fact that it was offered as item K in the US Diver's catalog.=
 =20
I do not believe that a single tank DIN valve would be refered to as a K=20
valve.

Contrary to what you say, I cannot verify that the K valve preceeded the J=20
valve.

I now understand that you are looking for comments on 300 bar single tank DI=
N=20
valves.  I have several but have no strong opinions on any particular=20
manufacturer.

Take care and dive safe,      Scott

Some weeks it just isn't worth the effort to gnaw through the restraints and=
=20
scramble up out of the pit
