Can I use standard hoses on Poseidon Jetstream and Xtreme regulators?
Yes, if your Poseidon regulator was manufactured 2008 or later. In 2008 Poseidon updated their Xstream first stage design (the Mk3 designation) and Xstream/Jetstream second stages to no longer require a Poseidon-specific low-pressure regulator hose.
Prior to 2008, Poseidon incorporated the OPV for their Jetstream and Xstream second stages in a unique fitting on the end of their non-standard low-pressure second stage hose. There are adapters available which allow use of standard regulator hoses with Poseidon regulators manufactured prior to 2008. However, you MUST include an over-pressure relief valve, either by adding an OPV to an unused LP port on your older (Pre-2008) first stage - OR - use a hose adapter that incorporates an OPV - OR - use a current (manufactured 2008 and later) first stage that already incorporates an OPV.
