I was looking around Ebay the last few days, and i see some Scuba Pro mk5 for sale. So, i start digging in!
The prices are really low, i like the all metal look!
My last reg was a mk20 with a g500
How @ 100' or less would a MK5/109 in perfect shape compare?
Also, how much better (if any) is a pilot over a 109?
My thinking, i'm putting together a low cost warm water set. And i can save some
cash by getting a good mk5 & 109. I will have it checked out well before i use it!
I'm going to post a WTB now, mk5 2 hp 5 lp with a 109 balanced. In near mint condition. I know it might be hard to find, but i'm going to try!
Also, what are some others that an be had at a low price, that are very good? The Gems [:
Bill may I suggest you taking a look at the DIY forum here on Scubaboard. Most of the DIY regs information is on the older BA/109 regs. You need to remember that the second stages will probably need to be updated with new poppets and maybe a lever. What happened to your MK20-G500? That is an excellent regulator also. As many of us complain, the prices of vintage gear has increased over the past few years to the point where it is not necessarily inexpensive anymore.
There is an Aqualung Conshelf 14, that is also a metal reg. That may be a better choice because from my understanding they don't have some of the issues that the older 109s have.
