Wayne, have you ever had a regulator which was secured in a protected place, which breathed fine in pre-dive, show up with an unusable malfunction at depth? I'm not talking about deco regs . . . they really aren't secured safely, and because the tank is carried with the valve closed, they can depressurize and extrude o-rings and all kinds of ugliness. I'm talking about a secondary regulator on your primary gear, which was checked for mouthpiece problems and loose zipties and breathed in the water before the dive, and turns out to be unusable later. I'd be really interested in any kind of malfunction that could show up that way.
