- TUSA RS-520 06 January 09 16:25
- With a price tag of less than £170, the RS-520 represents excellent value and is certainly not let down by its performance.
- Tigullio T52 Airtrak Plus 06 January 09 14:08
- Despite its enormous size and weight and rather old-fashioned looks, the T52 gave a decent performance - one of the best of the bunch.
- Seemann Sub SL350-35TX 06 January 09 13:57
- This regulator is made in the same factory as the Northern Diver Jupiter, so it unsurprisingly behaved very similarly - although we did like the addition of the swivel on the second stage, which makes it really comfortable when moving your head around.
- Seac Sub D-Synchro Ice 06 January 09 13:41
- Not a bad valve, but not great either. It was almost impossible to breathe from when inverted and generally felt a bit clunky.
- Scubapro MK17/R395 06 January 09 13:29
- This reg's good overall performance was hindered slightly when it was orientated upside down.
- Northern Diver Jupiter 06 January 09 13:11
- Northern Diver has gone for a superb value package with this valve, which includes an octopus, a submersible pressure gauge, first-year service kit and even a trendy rigid carry-case.
- Mares MR12 Prestige 06 January 09 12:55
- In the horizontal position, this one of the smoothest regulators of all those on test here.
- Beuchat VX80 Iceberg 06 January 09 12:32
- A consistent performance for most of the time, it was a let-down when we tried to use it upside down.
- Aqua Lung Calypso 06 January 09 12:10
- This is a modern version of the classic Calypso valve, which has been the workhorse for many clubs and schools for decades.
- Cressi-sub Ellipse Steel/MC5 06 January 09 11:26
- With a beautifully lightweight second stage that is smooth to breathe through, you would expect the Ellipse to cost a great deal more than it actually does.
