Vector 1000 A.T.

[sujo]

I have a Vector 1000 AT, an older model, that was purchased about 4 yrs ago, shortly after certifying BOW. tried it once, was not particular about it (liked the idea of something in my hand I guess). Anyways, several yrs later, I am more relaxed and thought I would give it a try again. Hooked it up to the tank, tried the inflator/deflator mechanism, and the screw posts on the inside disintegrated. So if there are any divers/reps who know about the Vector 1000 AT and if the inflate/deflate mechanism is available, where could I purchase one. I have read on these posts that the Vector 1000AT is no longer available in North America. Thanks
