Hello all -
I'm looking for a reg that will help me with my dry mouth issues during dives. It sounds like this is the only reg that really tries to address the issue but after reading reviews about it I'm still a bit on the fence.
Reading through a review about the 2013 edition of the Oasis, the Scubalab tests gave it a Fair-to-Very Good rating range with its lowest marks for the stiffness of the purge cover and performance when in certain positions. A personal preference of mine is having the 2nd stage on a swivel and from what I've been able to find, this is not a standard feature on the reg.
For those who own or have used this reg, could you comment on its effectiveness of helping with a dry mouth during dives, stiffness of the purge cover and if the 2nd stage does come with a swivel?
Thanks!!
