The UK has tested the OmniSwivel Gas switch block for diving and found it does not meet regulations in the UK for PPE gear and recommends users stop using it and contact vendor. The testing found the block restricts gas flow to the diver which causes a serious risk of asphyxiation...

I live in Canada and saw the Alec Peirce scuba tech tips which highlighted the OrcaTorch. I did some research then went down to my local dive store to try to get them to order one. They have been trying for about a month to try and get pricing to no avail. They finally gave up and told me...
