The Ultimate Bad Example
it is my understanding that regulators will generally tolerate a swap under however a rebuild afterwards and possibly a new SPG is recommended afterwards.
If I was in Deco and needed to access the gas in a tank that had a failed regulator you better believe that I would do the swap and gladly rebuild after. It is much easier to do this if you have a stage and your two sidemount (primary) tanks so you keep breathing something while swapping regulators around.
But dont all tech diving failure scenarios end with you breathing off a bare tank valve with one fin no mask two failed computers and a leaking wing?
