Like most SP regs, it is a complete piece of shit. The exhaust valve is a "flapper" ( read "farm animal stupid") which is great for drinking water , but not so good for breathing other than on the fucking surface. The cover can not be removed to clear the mushroom or diaphragm, and it is driven by a piece of shit first stage that you have to take the shims out of to get any reasonable IP. This reg is made for assholes, and it is like bondage wings in that when you see somebody with it, give them a wide berth. -----Original Message----- From: ggiovani@at*.ne* [mailto:ggiovani@at*.ne*] Sent: Monday, December 24, 2001 11:11 AM To: techdiver@aquanaut.com Subject: Scubapro D400 In a recent posting, I read that the D400 is not recommended as a stage reg for "well known reasons." Could someone elaborate on this? Perhaps as a more general question, what are the pros and cons of a D400 second stage and how does it compare to a reg such as the G250? Thanks and Happy Holidays.
