First of all the thing works great! First dive 85 ft/about 40 deg F. Checked all attitudes, no problems breathing. And no dry throat! A first for me.
The one thing that's bugging me is, why is the main port located behind the port for my octo? And why is the main port 1/2", and all the rest 3/8"? And what is that little tube for inside the 1st stage main port?
To me, the second stage should be attached to the forward port, and the octo attached to the rear port for more ergonomic hose routing.
Does Mares have some reason I don't know about for this? Different hose routing?
Can I use adaptor fittings to get this thing configured the way I'm used to? Will that little tube interfere with adaptor fitting attachment?
