You got it!
Top notch service Angel! I appreciate it a lot and I’m glad you could bring my regs back to specs and give em a second lease on life. Just an excellent ending to a crazy story I won’t soon forget and I can’t believe the way it turned out. Thanks again brother!!!

I'm glad to have the chance to bring your regulator back to life. Thank you for picking Scuba Tech for your service.
Excellent video! Slowly getting my kit built up. Quick question and I could just as well search for the answer but is the 130 to 150 IP common on all 2nd stage or do the IP specs vary between manufacturers? Thanks again for a most excellent video. Love to see more.

Diaphragm 1st stages are consistent at 140 psi. Piston regs are usually 125 to 150 psi this will vary due to the number of shims on piston and balanced or unbalanced 1st stage. Thanks for watching! I have many more videos to come.
How do you adjust the 2 separate adjustment knobs on the second stage?

The knob has an internal adjustment , access is from the outside by removing the knob cap. Inward turns will apply more pressure to spring. Outward turns reduce inhalation effort but also cause free flows. This is a fine tuning which is set to the sweet spot and should be good til the next service.
Thank you for this post. Great thing this was not a body recovery!!! I know this situation was a bit of a "higher priority" lets find the owner of this gear, hopefully alive. On the West Coast at least in the Spearo Comminity, through Facebook, Instagram and even on KZread, regularly, equipement such as a fin, speargun, etc., is reunited with its owner. A couple of KZread content creators post in their videos what they found, and in later video posts, we hear that the piece of equipement was returned. Although the SCUBA community is relatively small, the Spearo community even smaller, makes me feel good that at least some people will "still" do the right thing. Great video post, thank you.🫡🤿

It is scary when equipment without the diver is found, makes you think something terrible has happened. It's awesome when people do the right thing. Thanks for watching.
