If you have anybody with a Buddy on the boat, they may carry one of the small test gauges for the rig. Like this one. (the lower one on the page)

A.P.Valves

You can plug this right into the reg's bc hose and see the pressure. 150 PSI is 10.2 Bar.

Yes, I used my IP gauge from my Evolution kit and it read 120psi. I changed to a apeks reg i had for my bailout bottle and it went to 130. It now pumps to 3200 easily. I belive thats about right (3210/25=128.4 psi) I guess I was incorrect earlier when I said I tested the Scuba pro reg. I must have gotten it confused with something else at home when I was checking stuff. When I get home Ill get a shim kit for the scuba pro and get it to 150psi.

Thanks for all the replies!
