"XS Scuba has received reports of 189 hose failures"
189/17,000=0.01% not 1% - although I know there were more failures that weren't reported
I don't see what difference seperating would make
My error was pointed out in post #9... the very next post. But thanks for playing anywayI'm hoping you aren't the one that does calculations for gas management on your team...
This is a rubber hose with the same 11Q3 date stamp as the recalled Miflex hoses, so it came from the same factory.
I stand corrected and have made a small change to this. The CPSC has published the report that I made about my ruptured Scuba Choice HP hose, on their web site. Saferproducts.gov | Incident Report Details I've been hoping for a product recall, but this is good progress. This is a rubber hose with the same 11Q3 date stamp as the recalled Miflex hoses, so it may have come from Li Chung plastic Co., Ltd. and was manufactured at the same time. I have contacted Scuba Choice in Chino, California, but I've received no reply. The hose came off of the male connector at the crimp, just before a dive.[/The CPSC has published the report that I made about my ruptured Scuba Choice HP hose, on their web site.
