    26650 Batteries & Charger... Recommendations?

    Bought 2 vapcell 5900 mAh 26650s from mahbattery.com. These are apparently the same cells as the Shockli 5500s. I drained one in a d26 and was able to pump 5884 mAh into it. Vapcell 26650 5900mAh 20A Battery

    Stuart, have you tested them to see how long they will last in your d26 on full blast yet?

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad seat or something else?

    Speaking of that o-ring, I had a tough time getting it into its groove even with Herman’s tool. The opening is really small so the o-ring had to be squeezed and put it n sideways to even get it started and then when I pushed it down where the groove was, it was still all crooked and even got...

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad seat or something else?

    That looks great man! Yea, I decided not to mess with too much DIY stuff in terms of tools, so I bought everything. In the end I prolly just should've bought a deep6 set from DGX for not much more $ since I also had to rebuild the 2nd stages with S wing poppets, upgraded the hoses, got a...

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad seat or something else?

    Well, I think this can be marked as a success story! Pressure is on the low side, but it locks up at 115 right away, then creeps up to 117-120 and does not leak. Tested it by following halocline’s method and there was no pressure drop on either side :) I guess I’ll have to add some shims to...

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad seat or something else?

    Thanks Herman, Went ahead and worked on it some more. This seems about as good as I can get it without it feeling like I’m removing too much material. I hit it with some 800 grit wet paper and then 1k, followed by metal polish. Looks and feels much better, especially when not zooming in. The...

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad seat or something else?

    Thanks everybody! I made a couple of passes with a 1k wet sandpaper around that ring and polished it up with some metal polish. Chrome is definitely gone in that area and you can feel unevenness when running a ball-tipped brass pick over that area. Do you think it’s worth working on it some...

    Awesome, thanks! Got it apart earlier today. Just waiting on the parts to arrive now. How bad does this damage look on the cylinder wall? Best regards.

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad seat or something else?

    Is this turret nut on a MK10 removed by simply chocking the reg at the LP port and removing it with an allen in the attached pic? I watched Bryan’s MK5 disassembly video, but this thing looks different.

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad seat or something else?

    Thanks Herman! Some 1k-2k wet sand paper and metal polish? #0000 steel wool and metal polish? I’m assuming the finer finish on the surface the better in this application, since it’s sealing with rubber o-rings?

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad seat or something else?

    Well, well, well. You guys were right! Just look at that seat. The main piston o ring is totally flat too and the one that sits inside the chamber is hard as hell to remove; I’ve been pulling it out in pieces. The piston edge feels nice and smooth. I think there may be a scratch or two on the...

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad seat or something else?

    Thank you all! Hope it will be a simple fix. Herman, I've already reached out to you earlier about some parts, but I wanted to put this thing on a tank first. Will be in touch shortly.

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad seat or something else?

    Cross-posting from the equipment section; thinking perhaps this is the more appropriate place for this question? Hi guys, I recently picked up a used MK10/g250/g200 setup and just hooked it up to a tank to test it out. Low and behold, the 1st stage appears to be leaking air internally and the...

    Scubapro MK10 issue. Bad HP seat?

    Hi guys, I recently picked up a used MK10/g250/g200 setup and just hooked it up to a tank to test it out. Low and behold, the 1st stage appears to be leaking air internally and the IP spikes up to 180+psi. I can feel the air coming out of the small holes around the 1st stage and the top part...
