Hmmm.... I finally think that I'll just have to settle with the Aqualung Legend LX.... *sigh*

I just returned from a training dive. My instructor used a Titan LX while I used a Scubapro something at his request. It was designed to increase my stress level. We spoke about Conshelfs because I own two; he told me his first regulator was a Conshelf XIV and the Titan breathes much easier than the XIV.

It's only an opinion but I trust this instructor.

Thanks for the opinion. But, if I'm not mistaken, the Legend LX breathes lighter than the Titan LX.

No black bubble means no seal. I would take a look at how badly you need it versus the cost of the thing.

I finally am going through my drysuit training. Just waiting for my 2 checkout dives and it was recommended that I carry a small cylinder with Argon. I may save the regulator for that. Wonder if I will need the cold water kit for that application as well.

I wouldn't think so. as you master the use of a drysuit, you will use the inflator less and less. Just like a BCD. First stages for that purpose are usually inexpensive, low maintenance ones. If anything (i am sure already know) this is one place you would really want to consider an OPRV.

It's not dead for me. What sub-model is it?

I don't know if you had previously discounted this model from your preference or not.
