I live in Minnesota and while I plan to do some tropical diving most of my dives will be in Minnesota lakes. Though I plan to dive during the summer where temperatures will be warmer, I'd like to get a setup that prepares me for possible colder water diving. I plan to dive at Lake Superior and would consider ice diving.
I've visited the sherwoodscuba.com website and there are two regulators that I am looking at: the magnum and the blizzard. The magnum says "The Magnum meets or exceeds Navy diving tests and all European EN250 standards, including cold water performance tests." Could you let me know if there is a cutoff line for temperature that you would recommend switching over from the Magnum to the blizzard? Other than the price, is there any other reason I might want a Magnum over a Blizzard? Thanks.
