Cold water regulator for octopus

[SeahorseDeb]

Query for the board members: What Scubapro regulator would be budget friendly and perform in cold water aka 38-80 degrees is my reality...if I need to donate to a buddy.... Thankyou!!!

The same one as your primary would be my suggestion.

I don't need a $700 regulator....something a little less expensive.....

Why does it have to be scubapro? You can get any number of really good second stages starting at $100.00 or so on up.

Same one as your primary is the best option. G260 is the best scubapro 2nd stage. R195 is okay as well for octo but it needs to be well tuned.

I love diving and teaching others to dive.

What SP reg is 700 bucks? LOL

I use a r295 on my pony...great little reg. But I agree, generally better to have identical regs for primary and backup.

All bashing aside... You may still be able to pick up a HOG classic second stage for 65 bucks. That's about the best bang for the buck for a reg that performs well!

Someone grabbed the last one from Cave Adventurers the other night.
