I am looking for a balanced diaphragm regulator. I am also looking for a very reliable, durable regulator and was told that Sherwood provides just that. But, on the website, there is very little/no information about whether the regulators are diaphragm or piston. I will be diving in Fiji, and although the water is very clear and warm, I want a regulator that will not pose any problems over the course of two years. I plan to be in a very secluded area with no easy access to any LDS, SCUBA diving nearly every day. Currents may pose an issue, and since I will be diving year round doing reef studies, sediments may be a concern during the rainy season. Any information or advice would be very helpful.

All the Sherwood regs are piston regs the only reg that is not balanced is the Brut
FijiBound:
fijibound: Sherwood makes very good dependable regs. They are piston regs. If you are looking for a balanced diaphragm regulator that can be serviced worldwide you might want to consider Aqua-lung. They have a very extensive and long standing dealer network and they manufacture very high quality diaphragm regs. Best wishes for lots of safe diving.
