If I don't get a reasonable response from the dive shop and/or Scubapro by next week, I will start a new thread for folks with this regulator. Maybe we can get together and voice our concern in concert if needed.

My tech's response to all this:

I also received the e-mail Freddie posted (came from Ben Davison at Undercurrent). This was in reality the second e-mail in a few days from Undercurrent dealing with the Mk-20 failure at NOAA, except this one specifically stated the problem was NOT due to overtightening the yoke nut. It is possible Seb's "tech" may have incorrect (or incomplete) info. Also I have not seen anything written regarding "8 years of picking up the scuba unit by the reg to cause the failure". Wonder where that came from.

Hi all I received this today about the MK20
|
By Dr. Director (BonaireTalker - Post #65) on Tuesday, June 7, 2005 - 11:47 am: |
I am happy to see that ScubaPro has taken positive action regarding the Mk-20, both in using an independent outside organization to evaluate/identify the cause and in offering corrective action.

We have 3 of these 1st stages. I've always been impressed with Scubapro's service and upgrade programs and would expect nothing less from them.
