I contacted Dive Rite about their manifolds and this is the reply I got. Subj: Fwd: manifold failure Date: 95-04-05 01:02:47 EDT From: 72110.3055@co*.co* Dive Rite has manifolds in stock. The new manifolds from Dive Rtie are Nitrox ready and have a new finish. They will be easy to tell apart from the Divers Supply manifolds. Subj: Fwd: manifold failure Date: 95-04-05 01:02:47 EDT From: 72110.3055@co*.co* From: 72110.3055@co*.co* (Lamar Hires) To: AVarouxis@ao*.co* (INTERNET:AVarouxis@ao*.co*) I have received messages of manifold failures as if it happened yesterday. These were supposedly at Ginnie Springs. I called Ginnie Springs and talked to all the staff, I am also out there at least 4 times a month. Since everyone wants to pass rumors on and not find out what happened I have the facts. The single manifold failure occured back in the fall. It was the OLD STYLE Sea Elite manifold, currently imported by OMS. The failure was an o ring on the crossbar, it failed because the doubles were not assembled properly.
