| Submersible Systems Spare Air Pack Reviews 
Reviewer: Adam F. on 7/12/2009
A few good more breathes - so my ssi dealer does not rate these very highly, as he says too many people rely on them in their dive. his quote "three breaths and your dead." my opinion is that is three breaths more to attract your dive buddys attention and hopefully get their assistance. if you dont treat it as an alternative air source and just as an emergency option, i think you should be ok. i filled the tank from my regular tank as you are suppose to and i saw about a 400 lb in pressure in my regular tank, which meant that i needed to get that tank topped up. the spare-air full indicator is a little pin that is flush with its enclosure when full. id prefer a gauge. i wanted to know how many breaths i would...

| Oceanic Air XS II Reviews 
Reviewer: Jung K. on 2/3/2007
One less hose, but could be better - The Oceanic Air XS II works just as advertised. It was relatively easy for me to replace the inflator on my BC. My BC must have come with a slightly different hose than the Air XS was meant for. The Air XS came with a clip thats supposed to cover the hose connector, but it wont fit on my hose.
The inflator and the purge valve are easy to find. But the dump button is kind of small and will take some time for me to locate without looking.
I am happy with the Air XS II and very happy to get rid of one hose. Im sorry I waited so long to make the change.

| Zeagle Pony Bottle System Reviews
Reviewer: Brian McHugh on 8/28/2007
Nice set up - Works well, reg breaths very well, probably better than my primary Aqua Lung regulator. I wish the bottle holder could attach a bit more firmly, it tends to bounce around prior to getting in the water. Once in the water it is fine.

| Scuba Breakaway Scuba Octo Holder Reviews
Reviewer: Tom Chisholm on 9/17/2007
Restraining the Octopus - Your "octopus" needs to be both restrained and at the same time instantly accessable. This velcro=based holder provides a secure mounting point for the spare second stage, decreasing the liklihood of it getting entangled or coming loose, while still providing a simple, quick release when needed. No more buckles to squeeze or pockets to open,and no more dangling regulators tangled in kelp.

| XS Scuba Airwave Plus Inline Scuba Octo Reviews
Reviewer: Michael Bove Instructor on 8/25/2006
Easy Breathing, Perfect for Travel! - the airwave plus is one of the many new hybrid inline octos. this thing is great because it allows you to knock off a hose, making you more streamlined. this is the perfect octo for dive travel. you get the simplicity of one hose for both your octo and your bc with the convenience of being able to hook it up to any standard power inflator. since it fits any standard power inflator, you can leave your bc at home if you need room in your suitcase for something else. the dive / pre-dive switch is a great feature something not found on many octos, but a great innovation nontheless.

| Aeris Air Link Reviews
Reviewer: George M. on 5/6/2007
Great way to eliminate a hose!! - When I got this piece of equipment I thought it would be cool to eliminate a hose. I just didn’t realize how cool it was going to be. I love the fact that I eliminated a hose, and just to make sure it worked properly my wife and I did an accent using the Aeris Air Link. We had no problems using the Air Link, I just gave her my reg, and I used the air link without any trouble. It also is the inflator, and deflator for my BCD I had no trouble here either. I would highly recommend this piece of equipment if you are looking to free up a little space, and have one less thing to worry about dragging on the bottom.

| Sherwood Standard Scuba Octo Reviews
Reviewer: Daniel Phillips on 10/18/2006
Sherwood Octo - Basic octo. I assume it works well, but I have never had anyone buddy breathe from it.

| Atomic SS1 Scuba Octo Reviews
Reviewer: Donald Dutcher on 6/19/2011
Atomic SS1 Titanium Octo - Outstanding Reg - I bought this because I needed an alternate air source for my travel rig. What I liked most was the fact that the regulator was removeable and using attachments you can change it to a different BC without having to cut the bands off every time. Also that you can remove it for travel. I did 7 dives in the Caymans with this reg as my octo. At times during the dives, I intentionally switched over to it and it performed flowlessly. It breaths as good as the name brand regs I have used and it cleared easily, even at 105 feet. Although I have not yet tried it in cold water, I have no dought it will work fine.
BOTTOM LINE - this is the best alternate reg ive used. This is my first... View Full Review

| Oceanic Slimline 2 Scuba Octo Reviews
Reviewer: David Ray on 6/9/2008
Awesome octo. - Its an octo... hopefully it wont be needed anytime soon, but since every smart diver shold have one, its a slimline and stays out of the way. Great price too. No free flowing problem at all since I have been using it.

| Sherwood Dual Scuba Octo Reviews
Reviewer: Jorge Vasconcelos on 10/27/2008
Great Octo - Bought this octo together with my Sherwood Maximus regulator, this unit worked 100% on my open water dives specially during share air simulation the fact the you can adjust the mouth piece from 0 to 90 degrees allows you to adjust it to whatever is most convenient for you and your buddy. Scuba.com was also awesome they assembled everything for me (new sherwood regulator + first stage + octo), basically was as easy as take it out of the box and dive. Thanks for the awseome work and customer service scube.com, you guys rock.
