Hi

I'm planning to change all my hose on my kit for flex hose (trying to loose some weight) and I was wondering if I can put any HP hose on the quick disconnect adaptor
of the atmos ai?
he're is the model I'm looking to buy
Phantom Standard 3/8 LP Regulator Hose

Thanks
Rod

PS: I need an answer fast because I leave for Roatan on 25th of august and I want to have time to order and install everything and test it.
 
I'm looking for a quick disconnect flex hose for my Aeris A300 AI. Does this exist? Any plans to make this in the future?

I had the same requirement. Actually, I had 3 objectives:

1) Use a shorter HP hose: I found the one that came with my Atmos AI with the Quick disconnect was just too long. I have it clipped to my left hip and I find it bows out too far - to the extent that I caught it on the boat rail getting off the ladder.... HMmmm got to fix that!

2) Switch to a flex hose: Lighter weight & more streamlined

3) Keep the Quick disconnect feature: I REALLY like the Quick disconnect as it allows me to disconnect the computer to take it with me or download dives - many advantages to having the QD.

I did contact Aeris a couple of times to see if they had options but I did not get a response. My guess is that they have one QD fitting that is pretty much bonded to the hose that they supply.

My solution was to choose the type and length of hose I wanted (24" HP Kevlar hose from Dive Gear Express: Double Braided Flexible Hoses for SCUBA - Dive Gear Express) and then add a Suunto HP Quick disconnect unit from Leisurepro (Suunto Quick Disconnect for Computer Gauges at LeisurePro).

The Suunto QD is a bit long in my opinion, but it works great and gives me exactly what I want at about the same price for the Aeries QD (which is now in my spare parts box... anyone want to buy one?? :)

Good luck!
 
Sell that spare QD hose yet? I'm interested if not. I can be reached at scubadvr01@gmail.com
