Hi All,
I am on the Big Island near Kona visiting and I need to have my Scubapro regulator serviced. I figure I'll have the annual done here.
Which shop would you all suggest?

If you're on a dive trip and your reg is working I'd delay the service until you've finished diving. If there's an issue then obviously it needs looking at.

I'd talk to Norm (owner) at Big Island first. Big Island Divers Diving Scuba Snorkel Kona Hawaii Manta Ray

As a factory trained technician, Norm stays on the cutting edge of equipment repair. He takes pride in tuning your regulator to breathe better than it did "out of the box".

I'd give them each a call and and ask how quickly they could do your service. That'll likely be the deciding factor.

BID serviced mine while I was diving with them, out on the boat they were setting everything up for me and my regulator wouldn't stop free flowing. Got it fixed that day and the charge was very reasonable.

I took it to Jack's Diving Locker. I should get it back in a day or two, hopefully.
Thanks for the quick replies.

I got my reg back in good shape and dove it today. Smooth breathing, I love my scubapro.
I dove out of Puako today - turtles, a zebra eel, fair amount of fish and a couple nudis. 81 degree water.... aaahhhh!!!! Going to night dive with Mantas tonight.
