THE Second Stage for Technical Divers!

An important ergonomic feature of this second stage gives you one-handed access to both the inhalation effort knob and the dive/pre-dive venturi adjustment lever, making perfect regulator tuning easy.

• Inhalation Effort Adjustment knob.
• Dive / Pre-Dive Venturi lever.
• Metal Air Tube.
• Rigid Face-Cover with positive-action purge button.
• Metal Face-Cover Ring for extreme durability.

The rigid second stage face cover and the positive-action purge button reduce the possibility for current-induced free flows and completely eliminate the possibility of diaphragm pinching seen with many flimsy rubber purge covers. The most important feature of the HOG technical second stage is the amazing breathing performance! The metal air tube and precision components of this second stage allow for precision tuning for extremely easy breathing. The dual diver-adjustable features then allow for condition-specific tuning during the dive. When paired with the HOG D1 or D1-COLD first stage, you can build a technical diving regulator that simply cannot be beat!

HOG Second stages have been produced using a DIVE INDUSTRY first and MUCH more environmentally friendly Trivalent Chroming process. Trivalent Chrome is exceptionally friendly to the environment compared to standard Chrome; it is also much more expensive. Even using more expensive choices in production, HOG regulators remain the best value in the dive industry for divers needing durability, performance and reliability for demanding technical dives.

We don't sell the HOG regulators as a prepackaged "kit" since the intended market, Technical Divers, has varied needs in hose length. This allows us to keep the price lower while not having a "standard" length hose end up discarded and unused, which is a silly waste of money and resources.
