Subject: New Poseidon 1st stage


Hi everybody,

I am a swiss cave diver and in our group we use almost excluselively Poseidon
regulators. I really prefer the previous version of the first stage for
the following reasons:
- 4 lp outlets are more than enough (regulator, dry-suit inflator, buyoyancy
  control and perhaps an octopus) what should the 5th or the 6th lp outlet
  be good for ?
- as already mentioned the hp outlet is placed in a way that the hp swivel
  must be used in almost every case and the swivel tends to get unscewed
  quite easily ans there is one more O ring to worry about.

Could anybody tell me the advantages (if any) of the new 1st stage design ??

Thanks

Michael Walz
