Well designed and reliable. Used it on a night dive and did not notice much performance difference form my primary. Should be a good companion to Legend LX during lake dives this winter.

I have used this in classes and training and it works. I have had this free-flow on me a few times. If you are looking to get a rig together with minimal cost I would highly recommend this. Since then I have discovered inflaters that are also a secondary air source. I just purchased the Atomic SS1, Titanium. This allows me to get rid of a separate hose all together. In the case of need, hand your primary to your buddy, and use the Safe Secondary Inflater for yourself. For me the less hoses the better, but like I said if you are on a budget this will get the job done for a fair price.

Breathed a little harder than I would have liked, especially when working hard. I would have a friend try mine before buying one.

Obtaines as part of Legend LX ACD rig to use for open water cert & vacation dive. Never got around to trying octopus, but didn't have any problems with it. Seemed to work OK for buddy during course.

I am happy with this product, And the service from Leisurepro. I returned my XS air wave and the transition on the return was great. I have bought several products and have been very satisfied with the service. A-1 company Frank G

As good as it gets. This Octo is ready to go where ever you go including cold water. If you dive cold water this and the Glacia are the best backups. For what it gives you the size doesn't realy bother me but the small compact ABS are nice and easy to tuck away. I would still chose this one or the Glacia for cold water period!

Never had to use it in anger, but it is very reassuring to have such a quality component there in case a buddy needs it. My aqualung regulators are really really good.

Unit has a vane to eliminate free flow on surface. It is a good backup breather.

This was a natural choice as an Octo for my Legend primary reg. It is essentially the same breather and you will get the smae performance and feel. Unfortunately, it does not come with (at least mine did not) the comfo-bite mouthpiece that I love. However, if you are looking for an Octo with the same performance as your primary reg. this is it. The only drawback that I can see is the size. Being that it is the same size as the Legend, it is a little large and not quite as sleek as say, the flat ABS-type Octo.

Aqualung makes one of the best regulators on the market, yet most people don't even know it. It consistently rates at the top of Scuba Lab charts every year. This regulator has technical diving capabilities but is marketed mostly to the recreational diver. Bottom line, you can't find a better regulator and it's very well priced.

Aqua Lung is synonymous with the modern scuba regulator. Over 70 years of innovation have gone into making scuba regulators that are safer and easier to use than others on the market. An Aqua Lung scuba regulator offers you comfort, ease of breathing, control and peak performance. Aqua Lung and the scuba regulator share a rich history, and now is your chance to play a part. Choose the right scuba regulator to ensure your next dive is comfortable and safe. Aqua Lung has developed diving regulators built for new and experienced divers, as well as for a range of diving conditions.
To compliment the Legend regulator family, Aqua Lung created the Legend octopus. This high-visibility, yellow version of the Legend second stage is ideal to complete your system. Pneumatically-balanced second stage results in smooth, easy breathing. A venturi switch helps prevent free-flow at the surface and when the regulator is out of the diver's mouth. The opening effort is pre-set in a fixed position so the diver doesn't have to worry about adjusting the regulator during the dive. The silicone mouthpiece with ergonomic bite wings and comfort. A heat exchanger (patented) which surrounds the valve mechanism, dissipates the cold caused by gas expansion while drawing in the warmth of the ambient water. Excellent cold-water performance due to highly efficient heat exchanger surrounding the valve.
The ergonomic exhaust tee channels the exhaust bubbles out of your field of vision. The design also contributes to a reduction in exhalation effort. Attached to a 39" (99cm) yellow high visibility braided Aqua Flex hose. These hoses are lightweight and extremely pliable which eliminates any tugging on the mouthpiece. Regulator has high-visibility yellow purge cover and accent pieces. Compatible with up to 40% O2 right out of the box. Regulator weighs 7.4 oz. (210 g).
