Got a set of Kraken Argonaut cans from Rob @ The Scuba Museum.
Put a Phoenix and HPR in them.
Will be diving it Monday.

Looks good. I picked up a set as well. I haven't decided what to do with them yet. There's no other DH divers in this country that I've seen. Parts are just as rare.

Got to dive the reg Mon. and had several instances of the diaghragm and exhaust valve sticking together.
Cut a X out of some plastic shim stock and siliconed it to the diaghragm.
Dove it today and is working great.

I have not encountered this problem with my Kraken.

I had the same problem with my Kraken. I drew an x on the diaphragm with silicone sealant and that worked.

I finally made a label for reg.
Keeping with the Kraken theme, I went with LUSCA, a half octopus and half shark.
Didn't like the sharktopus name and found it named a Lusca in Caribbean mythology.

LUSCA a deadly creature that prowls the deep and preys on the unsuspecting.
