Dual ADJ Octo

Mares Dual ADJ Octopus: Primary Regulator Performance in Your Alternate

Why should your alternate air source be a compromise? The Mares Dual ADJ Octopus is a high-performance second stage that delivers the user control and advanced breathing characteristics typically found only in primary regulators, ensuring exceptional performance when it's needed most.

Breathing Performance You Can Control:

The Dual ADJ puts you in the driver's seat with features that allow you to manage its function.

• Adjustable Breathing Knob: This feature, rare for an octopus, allows you to fine-tune the inhalation effort. You can set it for a softer breathing experience or increase the resistance to help prevent free-flows when the octopus is not in use.
• VAD & PAD Systems: Mares’ patented Vortex Assisted Design (VAD) creates a swirling vortex of air that keeps the diaphragm down during inhalation for very sensitive and natural breathing. This works with the Pneumatically Assisted Design (PAD) to reduce the effort needed to start each breath.

Lightweight and User-Friendly Design:

This octopus is constructed from an ultralight technopolymer, which helps reduce the overall weight of your gear setup.

• Oversized Purge Button: In a stressful air-sharing situation, a large, easy-to-locate purge button is simple to press, even with thick gloves, ensuring the user can clear the regulator quickly.
• Superflex Hose: The included Superflex hose is much more pliable than traditional rubber hoses. This flexibility reduces pull on the mouthpiece, which helps prevent jaw fatigue for both the donating and receiving diver.

According to Mares, the technology in this delivery system has been tested for performance beyond 200 meters (656 ft), highlighting its design for demanding dive profiles.
