New equipment

[Vtach]

Hey there everyone!

New to the forum and was reading this thread. I have been a Poseidon diver for the last 5 years and I am DEFINITELY going to a different brand/style/design regulator. I initially was diving the Triton which was working pretty well for me but then I was informed that Poseidon would no longer offer parts to US Poseidon dealers so I "upgraded" to the Cyklon. Well, to make a long story short, it has locked up on me 3 times. The latest time was this last Sunday while diving on the Milwaukee (at about 90ft) it locked up on me enough that I could not get a full breath out of it. Switched to my Sherwood Blizzard which worked pretty well for a bit until that freeflowed (at least I was getting air). Aborted the dive due to crappy equipment. So, I have been looking at the Apeks and Zeagle regs. I am looking at the Apeks ATX200 or Zeagle Flathead. I have been diving actively for the last 11 years and heading toward the Tech/DIR route. I've heard many good things about these regs but this is the first from divers around this area of the country. So I am going to start shopping. Anyone heard of any problems with buying any of these regs off Ebay? There have been some Apeks regs for sale lately at not too shabby prices. Any input is appreciated.

Thanks,

Todd
