I used to own a Pioneer, it will dump plenty of air at the inflator if vertical or the back dump valve if horizontal. But the real solution is being able to disconnect the inflator hose at a moments notice. It's a good drill to practice.
Speaking of practice, it's well worth practicing breathing off that Air2 while managing your ascent, since the inflator/deflator are coupled with the second stage.
John_B,
My post described the scenario wherein a (new-ish) rec diver wearing a singles wing and ascending vertically (as rec divers do) discovers that his/her power inflator (or AIR 2-like combination inflator) has malfunctioned and now will *not* vent gas from his inflated wing.
I will initiate another thread so this scenario can be discussed further (to aviod hijacking the current thread).
Safe Diving,
