I saw some people using 1 lp port with a T fitted, one side of the T is the OPV the other the suit feed.

I did that but only because I had the Apeks DST and the T already.
Actually the swivel on the T makes it very convenient but it does mean that the hose can escape to some weird places when you are kitting up on a RIB.

Hi,

Does anyone know of a complete solution to dry suit inflation? I can find small bottles on shop sites but never one that includes a first stage too. I don't really want to have to buy a new first stage which has 4 lp ports and 2hp when all I need is one lp...

If anyone knows of a product I would be very greatfull.

Cheers

Ian

Ian,
I am looking at excactly the same setup after my drysuit cylinder and reg were stolen while moving overseas and OMS have a reg and cylinder combo. I believe the part number is:
GDS-DSI: OMS Inflation System (13 cf cylinder with 1st stage, lp inflator hose and 2 s/s bands)

Cheers

Nick

Thanks guys - I have decided to go for the one from Deepstop

The thing which swayed me for this setup rather than buying the reg and bottle etc was having the straps too - these seem very expensive on their own but fairy good value included in the combo.

Thanks again,

Ian
