Having learned to dive late in life I made up for it in my first year by clocking up 120+ open water dives in places from the UK to Australia. I went from a non diver to a technical deco diver in 9 months and loved every second of it. Since having kids not been able to travel as much so spend my time watching videos and reminiscing, hope you enjoy my site as much as I have making it.

If I buy a DIN regulator, can I use it with both a 232 BAR cylinder and a 300 BAR cylinder? Or are only some DIN regulators compatible with a 300 BAR cylinder?

For any who don't know, an "A-Clamp" is also called a "yoke" in some areas.

Very helpful – this was exactly the explanation I was looking for as I was confused about what I was looking at in the online shops!

Thanks! Saved me some worries when my new cylinder arrived and was clearly an A-Clamp type and I have a DIN regulator!

Thanks! This was a huge help to me when trying to find the right fill station for my HPA bottle for Airsoft 🙂

can a gauge can be attached to the din valve on the tank so that I can see how much air is in the cylinder
