Hi there! I'm going professional soon enough, but before I leave for DM internship, I want to buy my own gear. The price range at my destination is pretty much higher than what I can do from Europe, so I'm purchasing my gear back home, but I'm not 100% sure about regulator / low pressure connection / air gauge hose.
There might be some dumb questions (I know there is no dumb questions) but better to be safe than sorry, right?!
So to start at the beginning:
There might be some dumb questions (I know there is no dumb questions) but better to be safe than sorry, right?!
So to start at the beginning:
- The first stage, that attaches the regulator set to the scuba tank. The way it's attached to the bottle, is there only 1 type, or is there different types available? (I've heard about 'DIN' and 'yoke'? Yoke's the usual thing right?)
- The second stage, regulator so to speak, when you attach it to 1st stage (to the port), is the threads on the hoses always same? Is there a possibility to purchase a hose with different thread than what's in the 1st stage of the set (in the port)? Same question about the other hoses, air gauge connection and BCD low pressure connection?
- Is there a huge difference between the regulators? As they go from 100 to 1000 euros anyway.
