Hi all, new divers who just invested in x2 Apeks XL4+ kits for me and my wife. After reading the manual it specifically says about pressurised soaking the regs for around an hour, which I intend to do.
TLDR What kit should I get to pressure soak the regs.
I was intending to get a "spare air" kit with its own hand pump to eliminate the need to get refills from a diveshop (something like https://banggood.app.link/aSi1Y6tkI9). Only thing is I'm unsure what kind of fitting I'd need to be able to connect the regs 1st stage... We were thinking of getting an H valve to do both regs at the same time.
We don't have any intention of using the spare air (or a pony), it would only be for soaking.
I was also looking at a pony bottle, but these seem larger and need to be refilled by a dive shop (and then would need servicing etc. = more of a pain)
