GUE stage/deco SPGs?

Does GUE recommend only their standard backgas SPGs for stage/deco use, or is there an alternative?

I am no expert on this but from what i have seen they use the same type of SPG wether it be on your backgas, stage or deco bottle.

Great links, thanks. Are they securing the SPGs using zip ties?

I think most people use surgical tubing, bungee or a piece of inner tube

The recommendation is that stage SPGs be plastic because they weigh less. Oceanic is rumored to have the best quality unit. They also have real increment markings unlike many others.

BG SPGs should be HD brass.

Looks like $75.00 from leisurepro, vs. the $100 for the diverite brass spg at an LDS. Not quite the savings I'd hoped for.

LP does throw in a useless hose with that.

Anyone know of better sources for the oceanic slimline SPGs?
