Yes, I do.  Probably the main reason is that I also dive with this
regulator *without* a pony (on dives less than 70' or so).  The
alternate air source in this case is a Seaquest Air Source, so it
doubles as my power inflator.

BTW, I have breathed from this reg at 260' and it performs
"adequately" for a diver that is not exerting themselves.  It's
definitely stiffer than my USA SEA or ODIN.
