    Is he recommending to pretest fifteen cycles on the reg before each dive or just on new equipment as a commissioning / burn in test?

    Hello guys i need some help.. I am using Aqualung Titan LX requlator and by an accident it got a pretty hard hit on the first stage. I opened them on a shop with a professional but we were not able to find exactly were the damage is. Any way if i buy any other 1st stage from Aqualung or Apeks am i gonna have a problem ? Is it going to be dangerous ?
