If anyone is serious (curious ) about doing their own regulator /equipment work...and is not COMPLETELY comfortable about doing the work 1-buy and read reference books until you are confident or 2-DO'NT do the work..let the pro's do it....
regulators are blindingly simple in what they do,but, there is no room for error..having an 'o' ring go out 80+ feet down is a bad way to learn you did wrong but yes most divers in my opinion are capable of learning /doing their own work..the hard part is getting the needed repair parts.Again inmy opinion all divers should have some type of equipment knowledge if for no other reason to know when a problem really is a problem and not just a needed adjustment...sorry to be so long...one of my pet peives...

....took 11 days from the day I sent them from dfw, tx to leisure pro ltd, ny,ny round trip. Cost me 12 bux for ups. They sent new regs, I checked the serial numbers on the previous ones I sent back. I will try them out again in the pool before I hit the open water. I'll keep you posted....

Yep.. yep.. yep.. yep.. I had my tanks on ready to walk to the water and thought I heard an every-so-slight hiss. Sure enough, the reg had decided to free-flow slight (not sure if it was an air temp thing or what ...32°F... but a quick turn off of the air to that reg and removal of the 2nd while my tanks were still on allowed access to the allen adjustment... tweak, double-check, tweak, double-check... and away I went with no further issues that day... simpie, simpie, simpie....
...Certainly, I'd read the Vance Harlow Reg book and used an Apeks rebuild slide show to work on my regs before, but it's not rocket science...

Never had to use their warranty. If you want SP, look at diveinn also. Personally I bought my SP regs at my local shop.

Order a couple times, no problems.
Received warrenty card for them on dive computer.
Received warrenty card for them on dive computer.
The good:
Packaged stuff - Dive Alert, safety gear, lights, etc. No issues there. Fast, dependable, its all good. I'm buying an OMS SPG this afternoon. Packaged stuff, no issues.
Prices are very tough to beat. And for me, on-line shopping is all about price.
The bad:
BC's - both BCs I bought from them (before my assimiliation, of course) were floor worn last year's models. The SeaQuest Balance underwent a change in design a few years ago - I wanted the current design (neoprene neck role, better graphics, etc.) I made my purchase well into the new design year - what I got was the old BC. Sent it back, they RESENT another of the Old model. the SAME thing happened a year later when I bought my wife's Libra.... it was unreal.
Aside from the fact their website is the slowest site on the planet, and their search functions are completely worthless, I have no issues with them. eBay has been much better to me.
