Hi all.
Prices of comparable second stages and octopuses differ; what makes the difference? How safe is to use an octopus as primary regulator? Do all octopuses have the hose inlet on the left side ?
Came across a cheap second stage almost identical to a "Promate Hydro Wizard Octopus
OC500" as shown at the end of page here:

With another passage pattern on its front; cannot discern brand, has no markings/logo which seems unusual for a manufacturer not to mark anything. Is it a chinese something ?
It has the hose entering its right side, as a main second stage. What is it ?
