Specialty Regulators by Dive Rite |
Pricelist |
Dive Gear Express offers several Dive Rite regulator packages configured with hose lengths and accessories appropriate for specialty applications. We also offer individual Dive Rite first and second stages for those divers who prefer to assemble their own configurations. All these regulators include Dive Rite's limited lifetime warranty and free service kits for life through an authorized Dive Rite dealer as long as the regulator is serviced by an authorized Dive Rite dealer every two years or one hundred dives. Some divers choose to avail themselves of warranty service at authorized service centers. Others prefer the do-it-yourself method. With Dive Rite, there are no mysteries. Dive Gear Express offers complete service parts kits, spares, and maintenance manuals. |

An Example of the Overkill ConceptWe offer our Oxygen Regulator Packages in three versions: 1200, 2500, and 3000. There is very little benefit to selecting a high performance venturi assisted balanced second stage as an oxygen regulator that will never be used deeper than 20 feet. Our recommendation is save your money and purchase the RG1200 versions. However, if you need a regulator for deco or bailout bottles that will be used deeper then you should consider the Dive Rite RG3000 Stage or RG3000 Bailout configurations. There is one justification for considering the 2500 or 3000 as an oxygen regulator: standardization. You might select them if your back gas regulators are RG2500's or RG3000's and you want all your regs to be the same model for convenience of interchangeability, spares reduction and consistency of service. |

Choosing the Best Backup 2nd StageTraditionally, the backup/octopus second stage regulator has been a slightly lower performance unbalanced design because it was thought to be less likely to free flow, was more trouble-free, and lower cost. The unbalanced design is a reasonable choice for use on a deco reg. However, today most experienced divers have concerns about using a lower performance regulator under conditions that forced a switch to a backup reg. Our experience is that the high-performance balanced RG2015 second stage is very resistant to free flow when it has the venturi setting on pre-dive and the adjustment knob set low; field experience has shown the RG2015 to be quite trouble-free as well. Because the balanced RG2015 is attractively priced, most divers are now choosing a high-performance backup/octopus regulator. |
