Any D3 and Zenith feedback?

[CarcharodonCarcharias]

Anyone of you distinguished divers had a chance to take it out for a test drive yet?

If so, any feedback or review will be great!

Tks!

They just started shipping on Friday from us, the only non EDGE person that has been diving them is Edd and Cave Adventurers and only because I was down there diving with him..

Cool. Tks for the info. Will pay attention to the forum to reviews and feedback.

Would you consider posting an exploded view diagram of the D3 so we can appreciate its inner beauty?

Can't wait to start seeing reviews on the D3.

Does the D3 have the LP port on the bottom that the D1 has?

 

[cerich]

Yes, it has 5 pp ports and routes like a balanced piston

Great!! And performance compared to the D1? The D1 is a great reg. Is this a cosmetic upgrade, or a measuerable difference?

If its measurably better - Ill grab 2 D3s for my doubles and rotate my d1s to the rest of my fleet of HOG deco regs!

It's better than the D1, not so much most will notice but the machine does...

Plus...why rotate less performance regs to deco? I spend more time on deco and ease of breathing and low effort are important for offgassing...I see people say that all the time and it doesn't make sense. Put the lower performing regs on BG, the helium will let them work better than at shallow with thicker gas like 50/32 or 100%...

Because Im at 70 or 20 ft instead of the time at 200 ft.
