I also posted this in the regulator forum, but I wanted your opinions as well. I always have a back up regulator and since I am selling my other ones, I am looking for a backup. I currently have an A700/MK25 but I won't dive the cold dirty thermocline water with it. So i want a diaphragm reg. I like the idea of the Carbon 42 for when I go lobstering all day and jaw fatigue will set in after 6 dives. Also, I believe that they have very few moving parts in comparison to Scubapro, but I am not a reg tech. I'm just not sure of the benefits between the 2. I know they are both rock solid dependable from what I have read and have diaphragm first stages. I can get both for around the same price so that is not an issue. Any input is appreciated.
