| Anyone seen this happen before???
Prediving the Meg tonight to head out to dive Lake Mead early in the am. Got to Meg checklist point where I turned on dil and O2 bottles to record pressure. No more than 10 seconds after turning on valves I heard a loud boom....sounded liked a high pressure hose leak???
Turned off dil and O2 and looked around...the side of the low pressure inflator valve had completely blown off. Male fitting was still in LP hose. This is a new Dive Rite Classic wing with about 10 dives on it. I was tring it out to see if I liked the larger wing over the Tec Wing.
I had not seen any signs of damage to the vlave or observed any leaks from this wing on my last dive.....
Any thoughts???
Broke parts on the way to Dive Rite Monday.
