The Apeks XTX200, the company’s flagship regulator, gets high marks for its excellent breathing characteristics: well-designed user adjustments, great hose swivel connection on the second stage, and cool-looking chrome finish on the compact, environmentally sealed, over-balanced diaphragm first stage.

A stellar, ultrahigh airflow performer, SCUBAPRO’s MK25 smoked the ANSTI breathing machine when it was tested by ScubaLab. In fact, the more we stressed this reg, even down to extreme test depths, the better it performed.
When ScubaLab put the Mikron on the ANSTI breathing machine, it pumped out lots of air, even at extreme depths and breathing rates. Built for traveling, the Mikron features a balanced-diaphragm first stage that isn’t much bigger than a golf ball, a compact, pneumatically balanced second stage and an ultra-light, ultra-flexible braided hose.
