Regulator choice: Apeks XL4, AL Mikron, ScubaPro MK25 EVO + G260

ATX Regulators
Ask them if they will ship to Malaysia. If they do then make sure they will deduce 20% VAT from the bill. The saving on VAT should cover the best part of the shipping cost. Forget the XL4, DS4 or DST with either ATX/XTX50 is more than adequate for you or most rec/tec divers.

I like first stages that have two hp ports so that I can have a transmitter and an spg. It doesn't look like the Apeks has two. The Mikron works fine, but is optimized for compactness and low weight. The Mk25/G260 is optimized for performance. I personally would choose a Mk17/G260 combo, but the Mk25 does have better hose routing options.

Yes, the XL4, US4 and DS4 only have one hp port.

Yeah. Ended up ordering the XTX50(DST) set online. Here’s hoping there won’t be import tariffs. The schedule says no, but it can be a bit random in these here parts
