...trivia question for fellow Poseidon Odin owners:
In April 2002 I bought a used Odin from a dive shop in Mass. They deal in and service Odins, but weren't able to identify it's date-of-manufacture.
It's an 'older' 5-port 1st stage ( 1 HP port + 4 LP ports). The dive shop said it was made after 1994, based on the outside finish of the 1st stage, but couldn't be any more specific than that.
Here's what I know:
1) the 1st stage is a '2960' and both 'ends' are dome-shaped/"rounded".
2) when the 1st stage is mounted 'right-side-up' the primary 2nd stage LP port --designated by "R"--is on the left side of the 1st stage such that the primary 2nd stage hose routes over the left shoulder......which is, of course unlike the 'modern' Odin '3960' 1st stage, where this 'R-port' is located on the right side of the 1st stage, such that the primary 2nd stage hose routes over the right shoulder.
Can anyone provide the age range of this unit? I can provide the serial # on the 1st stage as well, if that would help narrow it down.
Just wondering about the history of the unit........I have 2 'new' Odin '3960' reg sets, as well as this older '2960' unit.
Thanks ,
Karl
